    The shell holder doesnt have a rod that can force the case thru the die.



    The redding push thru die works too but it costs about the same and you cant use it for factory crimping or sizing bullets. When he talks about 'removing the guts', he means unscrewing the cap and turning the die upside down. it is a 3 second procedure. I use an empty 2 liter bottom turn upsize down and tape it to the end of the die and it does the same thing Redding's $20 accessory does. Collects the brass so they don't fall on the ground.
    Thanks for the info, I just ordered a pusher from Lee. Only $2.50 + shipping.

        I pickup unwanted 9mm brass whenever I can, and there's always some Glock'ed brass in the mix, some worse than others. I decap, size, bell, prime, load, then use a Lee Factory crimp die as a last step after seating the bullet. It gives the cartridge a taper crimp, and resizes the bulge out as well, less than 5% won't pass the Dillon chamber guage test after doing this. The ones that have failed will drop into my P226 barrel.
        Or you could buy a $600+ rollsizer.

          I reload 45 and 10mm glocked brass with my regular dillon FL die and don't use any other method. I use the brass over and over and over till it splits. No problem.

          However I talked to one of my buddies and he said he uses U-DIE for his glocked 40s.

          This is what you want for glocked 40 brass. =)




          Edit: that Redding die looks awesome with the bottle reservoir attachment. I wonder how that whole system works. Any one have one and can comment on how it functions?

          Edit: Nevermind I found an article. http://www.ammoland.com/2009/05/07/r...y-of-the-year/
          It pushed up through the entire die and is removed from the "top". So that 2Litter bottle just stores it there so you dont need to remove each one by hand just crank away. That would be so quick with a progressive press and case feeder and you can do thousands in no time.

          Here's a pic on BENOS on how some one setup their reservoir with a glad tupperware. http://www.brianenos.com/forums/inde...=post&id=23663
