I've been happy with the RCBS dies I've been using on XTP bullets, but lately I've been working on a good hunting load with cast 350gr or 400gr. When I flare the brass it just gives a lip nothing further down. I think its shaving some lead off in the rimping process. The finished round looks fine but I disassembled one and it looked like it took .002 off the bullets in the crimping process. Is it my dies or am I doing something wrong? I reload cast on 45acp with no issues, this is my first on the ruger 480. Are there other dies that are better for this round?
