I too use "older" RCBS dies almost exclusively. BUT, i am about to purchase the new RCBS Match Master die set i recently was informed that they are now made in China. I have queried Google and come up with nothing. I know their electronics is Chinese but died used to be made in house. I want to start replacing many of my sizers with bushing type. Was intending on Match Master but won't if Chinese. Others are still USA made. Your thoughts?
Honestly I’ve never used RCBS match masters. I do think RCBS quality may have diminished slightly I’ve the last 30+ years. I try to stick to made in USA, but heck, even Harley Davidson parts, some of which, are made in China, so who knows of what is made in the US for sure. I have actually switched, almost exclusively, to Hornady dies. I don’t know if that helps…I feel like it didn’t, but I’m just not familiar with the Match Masters.
@@wesfox4455 Thanks for the opinion. Bought their equipment as a teenager. Good as RCBS..... back then " Round 1980" everybody made good stuff. I really don't want to buy Chinese tho! So I'll keep asking. But they sure are tightlipped about that kind of info. Makes me wonder why......... No.... I already know why!!
I’m sorry this took so long. Somehow I just missed it. RCBS makes pretty good stuff and they replaced it at no cost. I mostly use Hornady dies now. I really like the bullet seater better on the hornady.

About 3 weeks I had the same thing happen to me with a RCBS stem in my .308. die.

Wes Fox, I agree. I have really gotten into the 6.5 Creedmoor. I appreciate the time you take to put out the videos.
Kurt Baughman thank you. I have to give most of the credit to my son. I just record stuff and he edits it and puts it on the UA-cam.
Aren't you overworking your brass ? How much does it grow using this method ?
No. I am only moving the shoulder a couple thousandths. I don’t neck size because I want it to chamber reliably.
It was also just to show how you can still resize with a messed up die.
Man if you dont have confidence in your reloading why are you making instructional videos
Lol. I have no idea what you are referring to, but if it makes you feel better, then whatever.
