I'm don't recognize "LFCD"...What/who is it???

I have used a collet crimper in the past; don't recall who made it...On my 357 AMP cartridges, I think (it was decades ago)...I really couldn't get enough pressure using my RockChucker press to get a good collet/case mouth crimp...It was a 3-prong/finger crimping die...You still had to taper crimp it first, IIRC...The collet crimp was an extra operation...

I should probably try it again...I'm sure they've improved it by now...So that even a dummy like me could get a good case mouth crimp...
