RCBS 3 Die Roll Crimp Set - Legacy .45-110-2 7/8 Sharps

The RCBS 3 Die Roll Crimp Set - Legacy .45-110-2 7/8 Sharps provides the specialized precision required for handloading one of the most iconic long-range black powder cartridges in history. Designed for enthusiasts and competitive shooters utilizing original or high-quality reproduction Sharps rifles, this die set ensures that the substantial 2 7/8-inch case is handled with the same care as modern tactical loads. While black powder ballistics are rooted in the 19th century, achieving consistent sub-MOA performance at extreme distances requires the modern manufacturing tolerances found in the Legacy series. This set is an essential investment for anyone looking to maintain the operational readiness and accuracy of their historical or replica hardware.

This three-die configuration is engineered to manage the unique challenges of seating large-caliber lead bullets while maintaining proper neck tension and alignment. The set includes a sizing die to return fire-formed brass to factory specifications, an expander die to prep the case mouth for soft lead projectiles, and a dedicated seating die with a roll crimp feature. Utilizing a roll crimp is critical for the .45-110-2 7/8 Sharps to ensure the bullet remains secure against the heavy recoil of black powder charges while providing a consistent release during ignition. The dies are built from hardened steel to withstand the pressures of resizing long-walled brass and are compatible with standard 7/8"-14 thread reloading presses.

For shooters participating in long-range buffalo matches or historical recreations, the RCBS 3 Die Roll Crimp Set - Legacy .45-110-2 7/8 Sharps offers the reliability needed for high-volume reloading sessions. The precision threading and internal polishing minimize brass fatigue, extending the life of expensive and often hard-to-find .45-110 cases. Compatibility is streamlined for standard single-stage or turret presses, making this an easy integration for any established reloading bench. By controlling every variable of the cartridge assembly, shooters can achieve the extreme vertical consistency required for hitting targets at 1,000 yards and beyond.
