Hello everyone, I just won a set of .222 Rem. dies, seemingly made by RCBS, in an auction. Thing is, I've never seen an RCBS die set packaged in a similar manner. Does someone here recognize these? ![[Linked Image from egun.de]](https://www.egun.de/market/uploaded/0/14693168.368150147.jpg)

Years ago they marketed dies without the normal box that looked sort of like that (IIRC) at a slightly lower price. I forget their marketing name. I believe the dies were the normal rcbs dies with less packaging at a lower price point. I got some with a Partner press kit.

They are the cheaper dies. I believe they are not the same as dies in green box.

The only difference between the standard A dies is that the sizer uses a pinch collet for the decapper rod, kinda like the POS Hornady dies. Also very limited calibers. Cheaper yes, but looks like a better system than Hornady. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/cLxYVNkw/39068752-0-E9-E-4-C6-A-93-DA-857095-B73747.png)
