Description
This is a two-die reloading set manufactured by RCBS, chambered for .243 Winchester. The set is specifically designated as a small base set, designed to resize cartridge brass to minimum dimensions to ensure reliable chambering in semi-automatic, pump, or lever-action rifles. The assembly includes a full-length sizing die with an integrated decapping rod and a bullet seating die, both constructed with threaded steel bodies and knurled adjustment knobs. These tools are contained within a signature green plastic RCBS storage case and are accompanied by the original instruction manual. Key markings on the factory label include RCBS Inc., Oroville, California 95965, part number 11403, group A, and a hand-stamped designation S B Die Set .243 Win.
Condition report:
The steel dies exhibit visible signs of oxidation and light surface rust on the threaded bodies and knurled adjustment components. The decapping pin appears to be in functional condition. The green plastic case shows typical exterior shelf wear and dirt, and it retains a legacy retail price sticker. The included instruction manual shows light handling wear but is fully legible.
