Please note: Uberti has cut the shoulder in their weapons .050 shorter than SAAMI specs. Shorten resizing die head space .050".
If you find your reloaded .44-40 cartridges will not chamber in your Uberti weapons, it is not the dies. Uberti has decided to cut the .44-40 chambers to a standard other than SAAMI. The shoulder in the chamber is .050" closer to the breech face. If you return the resizing die to the factory, we will adjust it for you at no charge.

44/40 Winchester Factory Crimp Die
Click here to view parts
Lee 44/40 Winchester Factory Crimp Die crimps the bullet in place more firmly than any other tool. Tests demonstrate that even bullets which have no crimp groove will shoot more accurately. A firm crimp improves accuracy because pressure must build to a higher level before the bullet begins to move. This higher start pressure insures a more uniform pressure curve and less velocity variation.
