Sizing die for 38SC ?

What are you guys using for a sizing die for 38SC ? I'm using a Redding 38 Super Auto titanium carbide die and it seems to not be sizing all the way down the case. Slight bulge at the bottom of the case.

 

Thanks in advance.

The Redding die has a pretty generous chamfer at the bottom of the die.  Lee carbide dies have a much smaller chamfer and will size further down the case and the Lee U (undersize) die has the least chamfer and is slightly smaller in diameter.

 

Also use case lube, it makes it so much easier to size.

The Lee or EGW will work!! Both are made by Lee. 

 

I have a MarkVII Press so instead of a decapping die, I use the Redding 1st and then the Lee without the decap pin.  I lube the cases and it runs really smooth

since I am not under sizing right off. If you dont have that option the Lee or EGW might solve your problems.
