Hornady Custom Grade Series II 3-Die Set - 45-70 Govt - Includes Sizer / Seater / Expander

Description Custom-Grade rifle dies begin as specially selected steel that’s hand-inspected both before and after it’s delivered.

The steel is then heat-treated to ensure the durability needed to provide a lifetime of reloading.

Then the inside surface of each sizing die is carefully hand-polished to a mirror finish.

The result is a die so smooth, guaranteed to never scratch a case.

Before assembly, every part of every die is hand-inspected and a protective coating is applied to prevent moisture damage during shipping.

The result is the most advanced reloading die set available today.

Elliptical Expander significantly reduces the friction and case-neck stretch associated with other expanders.

It threads on so it can’t pull loose and eliminates the need for a separate expander die for “necking up” to the next larger caliber.

Sliding, In-Line Seating System assures in-line benchrest alignment of every bullet seated.

The sliding sleeve vertically pre-aligns the bullet with the case-neck as they enter the die body.

As the cartridge is raised, the bullet contacts the floating steel seating stem and is kept in perfect alignment as it’s being seated.
