Key Features

Zip Spindle Design The innovative spindle features precision-cut light threads on both the spindle and collet. This design eliminates slippage entirely while allowing smooth, incremental adjustments. No more knuckle-busting effort—simply turn for fine adjustments or zip it up and down for larger movements.

Precision Internal Finish Each die receives a smooth, polished internal profile that's precision-machined to eliminate case sticking and excessive friction. This superior finish ensures reliable functioning through thousands of reloading cycles.

Sure-Loc Lock Rings Hornady's exclusive lock rings clamp around the entire die, applying constant pressure across the threads. The locking screw tightens without ever contacting the threads, eliminating damage from pliers or wrenches.

Elliptical Expander Superior to conventional ball expanders, this exclusive design provides extremely smooth neck sizing while significantly reducing friction and case neck stretch. Internal threading prevents loosening, and the elliptical design eliminates the need for a separate expander die when necking up to larger calibers.

In-Line Bullet Seating System Hornady's advanced seating system holds the bullet, case neck, and seating stem in perfect alignment before the bullet enters the case. The system includes a floating bullet alignment sleeve, floating steel seating stem, and built-in crimper for benchrest-grade precision.

Built-In Crimper Option to crimp without additional equipment, giving you complete control over your finished rounds.
