I've noticed several companies sell three-die sets, while Lee tends to offer four-die sets, at least for handgun calibers. I know that fourth Lee die is the factory crimp die. (FCD)
How common is it to use or not use a fourth die to set a "factory" crimp on rounds? Do YOU use it?
Assuming it wouldn't be earth shattering not to use it, since not everyone includes it in their set. But I've got a grand total of 25 rounds loaded under my belt, so WTH do I know?
Opinions and/or facts on this topic are much appreciated!
