Sorry.
Only have experience using Lee Precision dies and equipment.
I started out with the Lee Load-all for shotshells and moved up to a Lee Progressive for pistol and rifle.

So, no help.

The current consensus, from what I can tell, among the 5.7x28 reloading community is that the first design of the Lee dies was fine. Then Lee redesigned it for unknown reasons and the current 5.7x28 dies from them aren't dependable.

That's why I'm looking at Lyman dies.
Maybe,
Lee found a way to make the process of producing the 5.7 dies easier for them.

But,
It changed the dies so much so that they aren't as good as they once were due to the new process.

Feedback to Lee could make a difference.

Orrrr......stay with me here......you can just get the dies that are available, and that work, so you don't have to wait 3 years for someone to decide to fix what they screwed up?

They all have great customer service, and if ANY round might need some "better" quality dies, it might be 5.7.

I mean...given the cost of the ammo, even a set of the most expensive dies would be offset pretty quickly.
Ayup.

Yer probably right, as usual.
