.357 Sig reloading dies

[Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494]

  Searching for carbide dies for .357 Sig with no luck yet.  Anyone aware of a source?

  If none exist, a basic set from Lee will likely do, as this will be a low-volume enterprise.

 

Thanks!

I’m out in Az. for the weekend but I do believe I have some .357 Sig dies I never used. I can get back to you on Monday.

Dillon advertises they sell carbide sets for the .357 SIG for only..... $152.95

 

The carbide sizing die by itself is ...... $116.95

 

It being a bottle neck case makes the carbide type die a rare thing.

 

You didn't ask, but I will mention it anyway.

 

I shoot the .357 SIG in both a SIG P320 and a SIG P229 Legend.   It is a great cartridge.

 

I resize my brass with a carbide .40 cal/10mm die.   Then, without using any lube, I neck size it

using a standard .357 SIG die.   The .40/10mm carbide die (Hornady brand) seems to resize the body

just enough that no lube is required when I use the standard sizing die (Redding) just to resize the

neck.

And I might add that I have my dies set up to resize my brass to headspace on the shoulder.

Some folks prefer to headspace on the case mouth.   Actually, I think most folks headspace

on the case mouth but I have found great results using the shoulder, although small, as

my preferred headspace.
