having reloaded rifle ammunition for years, I thought I'd do some pistol cartridge reloading. Not as easy I found out. The instructions with the die set, I found to be somewhat confusing. After crushing the first case, I knew at that point I was doing something wrong. I called a friend that had loaded thousands of pistol cartridges and he said forget the instructions and told me how he does it. Five minutes later I was loading to the point of perfection. It's easier to have a experinced loader help you than trying to navigate through those instructions.

As with every other set of RCBS dies I've owned, these are top quality. I was able to load XTPs with 2 different powders that were more accurate than any of the 6 types of factory ammo I tried.

The carbide dies worked well as expected. I have 7 sets of various calibers of carbide pistol dies from RCBS and they all work well.

If you are looking for great reloading equipment as I do, then look no further than RCBS. I have been reloading for over 50 years and have tried many different brands but always go back to RCBS.

I was looking for a .380 die set, preferably RCBS for less than the $50 - $60 you see them most places. I thought I'd have to buy used. This was a new set of dies for $50 with free shipping.
