what does the "ar/winchester mag refer to? does this set of dies work on a .45 acp cartridge for reloading or is the ar/win mag a separate designation
1669739
I use it to reload .45 ACP, works fine. .45 ar was a project using an AR-15 platform and .45 Winchester is really a .45 Mag. These dies will load all three.

This die works for ACP reloading. The AR stands for 45 auto rim or 45 auto. 45 Winchester Mag is a forgotten round. It's a longer version or the ACP round.
1669741
Yes, these dies work for all three cartridges. 45 ACP / 45 Auto Rim / 45 Win Mag. All 45 caliber but different cartridges.

I have no idea what the other stuff means. I loaded 1100 ends of 45 cap with my set

By two die, I guess you mean rifle. It uses standard dies...I use some lee dies and they work fine. The calibers it reloads is here http://brianenos.com/pages/dillon/cal.conv.chart.html

If I were facing your situation I would probably go for the set that has both the carbide die and the factory crimp die since the 45 acp uses the case mouth to seat in the chamber, hence you don't want to roll crimp the bullet in place.

BUT, i am getting confused on what actually comes with this purchase and what else i will need to buy before i can start to reload.

Will not reload 45 long Colts without the proper die set. With the proper die set, shell plate and feeder, I have been able to reload, 9mm, 40 S&W;, 45 ACP, 45 LC, .223. Like I said, this set up will ONLY do 45ACP.

The quick trim die is a separate item. You can order it separately and attach it to your press. I bought one for .223 and have trimmed about 500 cases. It works great!

I use my speed loader on all mags I have,so yes it works but one mag is really just for show,the one with fake rounds.Otherwise it's fine and actually a great first gun or cheap alternative to 300 dollar aeg's.

There are 2 sizing dies. One for use with brass already fired in your rifle, and the other for brass used in other guns. It's a bit more complicated to use, but I wish I could exchange my other dies for the Lee Precision Deluxe.

No, you have to get the specific dies for the caliber you are loading separately.

Some shell holders can be used for a couple of different calibers. Like for instance, I think a 380acp shell also fits one for 9mm. Plus, if you buy a die set for what ever caliber your reloading, it comes with a shell holder.

Yes, I've loaded both 9mm pistol and .223 rifle and plan to pick up dies for .45, 30-06 and 7.62X39. You'll need dies which usually include the shell holder. For rifle ammo you'll need case trimming tools etc. I get all my load data from the powder manufacturer's web site and take recommendation from the rep at my local gun shop on types of powder. There's also a lot of good reloading videos on you tube to get some baseline information in lieu of printed literature.

yes, it is for the .45 ACP. I have already made some reloads for my 1911 .45 ACP semi automatic.

9mm = tapered case.380 = straight caseBtw the expander die won't work.Having said all that. I did manage to load a few rounds after tweeking a few things and adding a few things. But only a few. It wasn't worth it and did not produce ammo that I was happy with. I'd just save the headache, bite the bullet and drop the $40-$50 on a 380 set. I have a turret press so I also bought an extra turret.

I don't know who makes your gun but i tested my mags in the "Echo One AK47 CPW AEG Rifle 31" and they worked amazingly. Sorry I couldn't really help you out.

A 223/5.56 Die set will load cartridges that will run through a semi auto rifle. And if that is what they are they will work but the photo attached to the question you sent shows they are for a .50 BMG and they will definitely will not load a .223 /5.56 round. I have yet to reload any cartridges with the Hornady 223 Remington set I have but I have run about 80 cartridges though my set resizing them and they worked fairly well. Jason Tillison's Answer listed is correct in the fact that the dies are full length die set. There are resizing dies that only work on the upper part of the cartridge or the neck but the set I bought are the full length set.

This set is for the .45 Colt cartridge, sometimes referred to as .45 Long Colt. I'm not certain where you thought you found .45 ACP in the ad for this die set. The ad clearly reads "Perfect for the .45 Colt." The die set for the .45 ACP is a completely different product and clearly marked as such.

The 4 die is identical to the 3 die set, but includes an additional die. 4th die is the factory crimp die. I'm not familiar with any problem Using these dies to load ammo for use in a glock. This set and the 3 die set both size to specification. I've never had any trouble in a glock with my reloads.
