RCBS Mould Experience

My RCBS dies are usually quite productive. Rain of boolits as it were... Note to all: If you haven't got a copy of RCBS Cast Bullet Manual, Number 1, do be a good sport and get one. Very terse, but the more I cast, the more sense it makes.

By demand, my Top Secret RCBS Cheat Sheet in Word. I can convert to *.rtf if needed.

Top secret list of RCBS expander plugs (three kinds!)

As always, send comments, corrections, disbelief, or outright puzzlement to me HERE

NOTE:  82084 (9mm-100-RN) is for the 9×18mm Makarov, which actually is a .365 Diameter!
The 9x18mm Makarov measured the bullet size land to land, not groove diameter. It is actually .365 groove diameter.

RCBS Mold / Die / TP Cheat-Sheet (where being cheated on is fun!)

List is by RCBS Part Number. You can always download the RCBS Cheat Sheet and sort any way you want...
