Description
This RCBS three-die reloading set is chambered for the 9.3x72R caliber and comes housed in its original green plastic storage box. The set is composed of a full-length sizing and decapping die, an expander die, and a bullet seating die, each featuring knurled bodies for grip and threaded locking rings for depth adjustment. Verbatim markings on the side label include QUAN. 1, PART NUMBER 55000, 3 DIE SET, and 9.3x72R, along with the manufacturer address RCBS INC., OROVILLE, CALIFORNIA 95965. The top lid features the RCBS PRECISIONEERED Reloading Dies branding with the handwritten name Jim Hill. A blank reloading data card is included inside the lid.
Condition report:
The green plastic case exhibits light scuffing and staining consistent with age and use. All three steel dies show significant surface oxidation and heavy rust, particularly concentrated on the knurled portions of the center and right-most dies. The threads and locking rings remain functional but will require cleaning and lubrication. The decapping pin appears to be in good, straight condition.
