Lee Factory Crimp Die .270 Winchester 90820 lets you perfectly form your crimp. This Lee crimp die can be used when reloading because the crimp die makes bullet seating easier. The first step in the reloading process is to crimp the case neck; this cannot be done with a crimp die. Many reloaders find it easier to just hand-crimp the case neck. However, this can be difficult because it takes so much force to do it. With a standard crimping die, you only get a crimp roll with a certain amount of stretch in the case mouth. A crimping die must have enough force to crimp the bullet; this is not possible. Even if the bullet has no cannelure, a crimp die is still needed to crimp the bullet in place. Even jacketed bullets must be seated by hand because the jacket must be crimped against a hard surface. A crimp die with a crimp spring is the only crimping die that has that feature. Also, like most crimp dies, you must load the case first, before crimping. Because this process eliminates the possibility of crimp roll bend or deformation, the life of the crimp die is extended. Plus, crimp dies with a crimp spring must be used for every crimping operation, or the die must be replaced. For this reason the dies are also reusable and can be used many times with relatively little effort.
