Anyone have a comparison/suggestion on RCBS Legacy vs the Lyman dies for .45-75?  Looking at making a purchase over on the BACO site, and those two are favorably priced for "my economy".  Is there any extreme difference in the two?
And while we're on the subject, what is the difference between the RCBS Legacy and the RCBS "standard" dies that creates the 230 +/- dollar difference?

Thanks,
Hugh

You might try CH dies, they aren't much to look at but they work and they don't cost anywhere near $200.00
I never considered myself a failure...I started out at the bottom and happen to like it here!

Hi Hugh

I have used LEE 45-75 dies. two different sets and they both worked great. I'm using win. 348 brass

CH dies are great and are USD100; - more or less, and that is for most of their line.  They are the greatest for the oldies!

My LEE dies were cheaper, but the neck came at minimum tolerances.  They offered to "ball size" to specs, but I never took them up on it.  I just partial resize and live with it
