Question on Lee reloading dies

meunke
OK all, I need some feedback.

I'm looking at getting the Lee carbide 3-die set for .38/.357. After more research, I can't decide if I should go ahead with that or get the delux 4 die set (with the crimper).

Is that 4th worth it?

I can always get the 3 die set and get the 4th later, but would like to know ya'lls thoughts.

Thanks!

    Get the 4. The factory crimp is much nicer than the one you get with the seating die.

    I have the 4-die sets for 45ACP, 44mag. The 45ACP factory crimp die is awesome, use it everytime. The 44mag factory crimp die is never used. It wrecked the first few I tried. Then realized the 3rd die was all I needed to get a perfect crimp. So, I think I just confused the situation even more. You're welcome...[:D]

    So, I guess just get the 4-die set, and if just using the three works, then don't bother with the 4th? Or use the fourth, unless it ruins the case, in which case just use the 3?
