Lyman Pro Die Pack 38 Super

The Lyman Pro Die Pack 38 Super is a precision reloading die set engineered for handloaders seeking consistent cartridge preparation and superior die longevity. Built from stainless steel throughout, these dies deliver the corrosion resistance and durability required for serious ammunition reloading operations, whether using Lyman Mark 7 progressive presses or traditional single-stage and turret platforms.

Stainless steel construction eliminates the rust concerns that plague conventional hardened steel dies, particularly in humid storage environments or humid climates. The sizing, seating, and crimping dies in this pack are manufactured to tight tolerances for uniform case preparation. Each die functions independently across different press styles, providing flexibility for reloaders who may transition between equipment or operate multiple presses simultaneously. The 38 Super cartridge—a high-pressure round favored in competitive shooting disciplines—demands precise die tolerances to ensure safe and consistent performance across chronograph testing and match conditions.

This die set serves competitive shooters, handloaders optimizing for accuracy in bullseye or practical shooting events, and ammunition preparers managing recurring batches of 38 Super ammunition. The pack's design prioritizes reliability and die durability for high-volume reloading workflows. Handloaders familiar with Lyman's reputation for precision tooling will recognize the engineering focus on repeatability and long-term die performance without maintenance-intensive corrosion control.

The 38 Super remains a staple in competitive pistol shooting and custom handgun builds where shooters seek flatter trajectories and higher velocities than standard 38 Special or 9mm loads provide. Serious reloaders often prefer dedicated die sets for each caliber to avoid setup time between cartridge changes and to maintain the specialized tolerances each round requires.
