I adore my 444 so, Some free advice...

Get the Lyman dies(they come with the M- type expander) and the lee factory crimp die.

MAKES A HUGE DIFF.

I use 444 brass, making my 309 JDJ ammo.

The Hornady dies come with expander but not the Lee FCD. I really like the seater dies on the Hornady dies. Great round. GL.

I've got a new set of RCBS steel 444 Marlin dies, part #20704 with shellholder and 69 pieces of Remington once fired 444 Marlin brass.

Ross' Coin and Gun in Idaho Falls has several bags of Remington unfired .444 brass in stock. I'm sure they will ship and I believe the price is pretty fair.
