any way that's easy to tell if an older set of dies are carbide or steel? I have a couple of pairs of older Lyman dies (38.357 and 45auto) that I am assuming are steel. I've got newer dies that are carbide but was going to sell these or trade them and thought I'd see. nothing on the box (both are older black boxes w/ silver lettering, felt interiors) that says anything besides caliber.
I suppose I could just try the w/o lube and see if I get a case stuck.
