I have a Lyman 45, and I know that the dies are interchangeable with the 450 and 4500 and
most likely with RCBS dies, too.
I have heard that "some older sizing dies" were made with a step inside the die rather than a smooth
taper down to the sizing diameter. Does anyone know if dies made for and marked as for the
Lyman 45 are these step type dies or not? Are some of them step but others not (IE, no way
to really know without looking at the die)?
Any knowledge and experience about this would be appreciated. Considering buying dies on
the net and wonder exactly what to expect.
Thanks.
