Is it worth the $30 to custom order a Lee crimp die for the 475 Linebaugh?

I know they brag on their "factory crimp dies". But my regular old Lee 3 die set for my 480 works just fine for me in my 480.

Only if it's the rifle style factory crimp die, and even then, only maybe.

I think the lee factory crimp die has a carbide sizing ring that will swage down hard cast bullets. I also think that you can knock the carbide ring out of the die. At least that's what I think I remember- plausible deniability  |

My 45 acp Factory Crimp Die does touch/resize the case post crimp but the two 45 Colt/454 ones I have don't touch the case even with .454 boolits.
