Lee 90784 Taper Crimp Die for .44 Special and .44 Magnum

The Lee 90784 Taper Crimp Die is designed for .44 Special and .44 Magnum pistol cartridge reloading. This dedicated crimp die helps address crimping problems that may result from poor die design, providing a practical solution for reloaders seeking more consistent cartridge preparation. Its taper crimp configuration is intended to support reliable bullet seating and cartridge finishing without relying on an overly aggressive roll crimp.

As part of Lee’s Crimp Die Series, this die is supplied as a single dedicated pistol die for .44 Magnum applications and is also suitable for .44 Special cartridges. The design provides an additional crimping step after bullet seating, helping produce uniform ammunition for compatible revolver platforms. Use according to established reloading procedures and the recommended load data for the selected cartridge, bullet, and powder combination.

The Lee 90784 offers little or no additional advantage when used with Lee dies manufactured in 1986 or later, because those dies already incorporate a modified taper crimp angle. For reloaders using older Lee equipment or seeking a purpose-built taper crimp solution, this die can help complete a compatible die setup. The clearly defined application and dedicated format make it straightforward to identify and integrate into an appropriate .44 caliber reloading workflow.
