Rifle Factory Crimp Die 7/8 x 14" thread

The collet-type Factory crimp die can be made for a wide variety of cartridges. Most cartridges will fit into the 7/8x14 thread die body. If your cartridge falls within the following parameters it will fit the standard 7/8 x 14 die:
Bullet diameter .172 - .501 (minimum - maximum)
Body diameter .295 - .570
Case length 1.345 - 2.850
(All dimensions in inches)

We need:

  1. Place order through this link.
  2. Dummy cartridge (a bullet seated in an empty case). The dummy cartridge is for testing purposes, so make sure it is within normal dimensional tolerances. *Note to International Customers: Due to newly enforced shipping regulations as of 2/6/18, we will NOT be able to return your dummy cartridge to you.*

Rifle Factory Crimp Dies are cartridge specific and there are a few that cannot be made. Any handgun case that is of a bottleneck design qualifies because the die would have to be made much like the Rifle Factory Crimp Dies, but we do not make die bodies shorter than that you would find on a .223 Remington. Examples would be the 30 Mauser, 7.62 x 25 and the .357 Sig. The 50 AE also applies because the case is too short for the die bodies available.
