Just that. I have not crimped any that I have reloaded but normally, I use a Lee FCD to lightly crimp cases for 6.8, .308, etc.

I have not tried a 6.8 FCD on the .270 MSR nor a .308 FCD on the Tac 30 and I guess that might be logical to try but, I thought I would ask if there is a more correct or feasible solution before I walk out to the shop and sweat. In the back of my mind, I keep thinking someone mentioned a 30-30 die but I have not seen it in my more recent reading on the two rounds...fixing to go read again

30 Herrett FCD works fine on the Tac 30. I don't have any experience with the 270MSR.

thks! I thought I searched for 30 Herrett, but that was before lunch LOL. But I just looked again and did not see one listed.

A search of the thread turned up this part #80228 . Lee is not showing it so I guess I will drop them a line. thanks for putting me on track

To wrap this one up, Lee is making me a die for both a Tac 30 and a 270 msr.

I just a shipping notice on my tac30. I should have it tomorrow. That may give you an idea on how long it may take.

They are just collet dies. I can't imagine why any .30 caliber wouldn't work for the Tac 30 and any .270 or 6.8 wouldn't work for the other.

They are cartridge specific. It has to do with case length, not caliber.

Nope, I tried and discovered what MBW states above. Bottomed out.

Got them back today. That was fast 👍
