Does anyone here use a Lee Factory Crimp Die on a .416 Taylor?

Lee factory crimp dies work well.

I have tried them on several cartridges.

Set it up very slowly to get the desired crimp.

Make sure your brass trimmed to the same length.

I use them on several cartridges, too, Lane, but not the .416 Taylor, which I consider simply elegant.

Thank you kindly Saeed and Bill.

I use them all the time for many rifles. I bought my son a .416 Taylor and I am gearing up to load ammo for him to take his first buff next summer. I have RCBS regular dies and will get Lee onto making me one but was hoping to borrow one for a while.

All dies crimp.

Problem arises when people do not trim their cases to the same length.

And some tend to over adjust the dies.

Proper crimp requires all cases the same length.

Adjust the dies very slowly, and lock it up.

That is it.
