RCBS Lube Die #2

The RCBS Lube Die #2 is a single-step case preparation tool that decaps and lubricates cartridge cases simultaneously, streamlining the reloading process for handloaders working with progressive or single-stage presses. Designed with RCBS's standard 7/8"-14 thread, this tool integrates into established reloading workflows without requiring proprietary adapters or modifications.

The Lube Die #2 eliminates the separate step of hand-lubing cases on a pad, reducing contamination exposure and improving consistency across batches. Its four-size configuration covers 45 popular rifle and pistol calibers, making it a versatile addition to any reloading bench. The die accepts standard RCBS Case Lube-2, which refills easily without complete disassembly. This dual-function approach—decapping and lubricating in a single press stroke—compresses the prep phase and keeps lubricant contained within the die chamber rather than distributed across a traditional lube pad.

Handloaders running progressive presses like the Pro 2000, Piggyback II, AmmoMaster, or Auto 4x4 benefit most from this tool's efficiency gains during high-volume reloading sessions. Single-stage press operators also gain from reduced handling time and cleaner case preparation. The straightforward design and standard threading ensure compatibility across RCBS and most aftermarket press platforms. For reloaders prioritizing workflow efficiency and case consistency, the Lube Die #2 provides measurable time savings while maintaining the precision critical to safe ammunition production.
