The RBT-2-S is a set of two dies, and a punch for an
existing point forming die, which is added to your flat
base die set in order to make rebated boattail base bullets.
This set of dies does not make a finished bullet. It is
used with an existing flat base die set. The core seating
die (CS-1-S) is NOT used, and instead, the lead core is
swaged into the jacket in the first boattail die (BT-1),
which applies an angle to a normal straight jacket's base.
Then the same jacket and core are put into the second
boattail die (BT-2) and the core is pressurized again.
This expands the angled base to form a rebated gas seal
edge. The jacket and core are then put into the existing
point form die, using the special RBT punch provided with
this kit to press against the base. This maintains the shape
of the RBT base, and further refines the edge or rebate.
All Corbin die sets are made of groups of individual dies
put together in various sets. The basic jacketed bullet die
set is the FJFB-3-S, which consists of a core swage (CSW-1),
a core seater (CS-1) and a point former (PF-1).
The core swage forms a precise shape and weight of lead
core and has extrusion holes to allow surplus lead to be
bled off and sheared from the core. The core seater is
used to put this core into a jacket, and apply pressure to
expand the jacket using the hydraulic force of highly
pressurized lead. The point forming shapes the nose or
ogive on the bullet.
Adding a RBT-2 die set to the FJFB-3 set makes the same
thing as a FRBO-5-S set. This means Flat, Rebated Boattail,
Open tip 5-die set. The set makes both flat and RBT bases
with open tips. Only three dies are used for flat base,
and only four are used for rebated boattail. The core
seat die is never used for making rebated boattail bullets.
