Lee Factory Crimp Die – 45/70 LEVERevolution (SKU: 91639)
The Lee 45/70 LEVERevolution Factory Crimp Die is a specialized crimping tool designed specifically for Hornady’s shorter LEVERevolution brass. Unlike standard 45/70 dies, this version is shortened to accommodate the unique case length of LEVERevolution cartridges, ensuring a proper crimp at the case mouth for consistent ignition and improved accuracy.
🔧 Key Features:
-
Custom Fit for LEVERevolution Brass: Standard 45/70 dies won’t work—this one is made to match the shorter case length
-
Firm, Uniform Crimp: Enhances accuracy by increasing start pressure and reducing velocity variation
-
Works Without a Crimp Groove: Even bullets lacking a cannelure can be crimped effectively
-
Improves Feeding & Consistency: Especially useful in lever-action rifles with tubular magazines
-
Steel Construction: Durable and built to Lee’s precision standards
