[QUOTE="okienate, post: 738447, member: 2897"] I'm running Lee dies and purchased the .44 magnum die set so I could handle both. In all honesty, about the only difference I can see between my .44 mag dies and the .44 spcl dies is the size of the full-length case sizing die. Everything else sets up from "touch the case and then turn 'X' amount in" If you are running a wheel gun, sounds like you are with the Ruger, then not being able to get complete. full length sizing shouldn't be a problem. Putting a bell on the case, inserting bullets and crimping all should be done in reference to the top of your brass, not where the die bottoms out on the shell holder. You should be able to adjust everything and come out fine. [/QUOTE]
