Cowboy shooting and the fine reproduction Sharps and other classic rifles have
generated new interest in shooting the "obsolete" rifle calibers. But the custom
reloading dies needed for these fine guns have been expensive and hard to find.
Lyman's Classic Rifle Die Sets have eliminated all the problems of costly custom
dies. Lyman's die sets are available in the popular Sharps calibers listed below.
These standard 7/8" x 14 3-die sets will fit all popular reloading presses and
include Lyman's popular "M" neck expanding die.

Black Powder Taper Crimp Dies
BP cartridges require compression for proper ignition. This requires firm
neck tension to hold the bullet without damage. The Taper Crimp Dies have
a minimum taper that allows the reloader to apply the proper neck tension
without damaging the bullet for best accuracy.
