The wife is asking for Christmas ideas so I thought I'd float the idea of a new set of dies.
For those of you loading some of the bigger calibers, what dies do y'all prefer for .475 Linebaugh?
I use a Lee single stage press for what it's worth.

When you get into the 475 & 500 LB, generally whatever is available. Bought my first set of 475 dies about a year before I found a revolver because they always seemed to be outta stock all the time the previous 5 years prior. When I finally found a gun to my liking, it came with a set of dies. Go figure.
Oh, got 2 sets or RCBS.

Hornady is probably the main one you will be able to find these days honestly. They work great.

I started with a set of Lee dies. Currently using a set of RCBS.
Both load good ammo, but I prefer the RCBS.

I started with Lee. The carbide sizing ring broke in short order and I returned it to Lee. No. it didn't contact the shell holder. I went the RCBS way.
