Just had a look and yep it has the breech lock steel insert. Not sure if it's really worth the hassle and money as others have pointed out. Especially if I intend to use the same dies for different projectiles etc. It seems a more secure system.than the lnl though than the lnl in that it won't back right out when you want to back you die out a bit with a bit of tension on the lock ring to keep everything a wee bit snug when making fine adjustments.
I note that many people just recommend to locktite it in and spin your dies in and out. Takes 10 seconds instead of.5
