Lyman reloading dies

just wondering mostly on the Lyman dies.
Recently? I do not know, I do not have any new Lyman dies, all of my old and very old Lyman dies are USA made dies. That goes for scales, trimmers, presses and case prep stuff.

Thanks FG. Yeah, wondering about the newer stuff; reloading dies mostly. I've got some older Lyman products that I've no doubt are U.S. made, especially my older bullet moulds and handles. I've also got a really nice old Lyman 1000 scale that's spot on with my RCBS 10/10 (both great scales). No big deal on the question, really. Just curious.
Redding claims all their products are 100% American made. Lee and Forster and CH4D and Wilson all make them here, AFAIK. I don't know if RCBS or Lyman have shopped dies out or are still making them here. They both sell at least some things that are made elsewhere.
Thanks for the comments. Just looking for another set of dies for my ADL in .223. My current FL die is set to partial size (RCBS; and it works just fine), and I'd like to leave it set as such. So, looking to buy another set (or maybe just a FL die) to use for the range brass I pick up at our local range. Just about every time I go out there for a bench session, there's .223 brass laying around just wanting to be picked up and re-used. Don't need to use any of it yet, but I may in the future. So, just wondering about my choices on die makers (leaning towards Redding a bit) and was curious about where Lyman dies may be made these days. No big deal, really. Probably just find another RCBS FL die on the net somewhere. Sure having fun with that .223.
