Delta Elite chamber case support?

Often marketed as "Bulge Buster" dies, these are effectively a Lee Carbide factory crimp die with the crimp components removed.  The brass is pushed all they way through the die and comes out the top, usually captured by a Lee container like they sell with their cast bullet sizer kits.

These are great for getting brass fired through generous chambers back into spec all the way down the case head.  They are often misused to recondition smiled brass that should be discarded.

Sorry for not getting back sooner but like sqlbullet said it's like a resizing die that you pass the whole case through from bottom to top.  Look in the reloading section here.  I'm not sure of the actual name and I'm out of town right now so I'm kind of on and off this week

OK, thanks. Years ago, I fired some full power, but not overloaded, 10mm through my first Glock 20. It was a Gen 2. Had a serious lack of chamber support and some of the cases were bulged so much I would not want to reload those. That is what prompted me to have Jarvis make me barrel for it. It is the Glock 20 barrel in one of previously posted pics. Much better, but still not great case support, but no more bulged brass. Although as I stated, I have never heard of these pass through dies, I have filed down a shell holder to allow the case to be resized down a bit further. Apparently these extreme measures will not be needed with my new Fusion 10mm.
