RCBS dies groups
Hi all, new reloader here, with a newby question. I was given a couple of RCBS dies sets, and on each storage box, after the caliber, each has a group desigination. A & B. The A group die set is a .270 Win, a two die set, and the other set is Group B, .357 Mag, a 3 die set. What is the siginifence of the group letter? Is it just that one set is 2 dies and the other a 3 die set? Thanks in advance for any help that you may give. Also one die set ( .270 Win ) is in an older storage box, smaller than the newer box, is there any source for these older boxes? Thanks again.

The letter designation pretty much indicates type, use, & pricing. Here's a detailed explanation:

Thanks craigster! Lost Coast CA? Do you mean somewhere near the Mendocino County/ Humbolt County border, Around Usal? This area? Born and raised there, moved back there in the 80's, just moved up here to Oregon last April.

I'm up at the north end, Ferndale/Petrolia way. Spend quite a bit of time in the King Range between the Mattole and Spanish Flat. Beautiful and rugged, as I'm sure you know. But people are starting to "discover" it more and more. Some interlopers are now refering to it as "The Found Coast".

Had you ever been to Usal Beach ( the pic I posted ), you'd be thinking Roosevelt Elk as well, big herd just north of here at Neddle Rock. Here's a few of the young bulls at Usal.
