Description

The Hornady Custom Grade New Dimension 2-Die Set, .222 Remington (brand part no. 546224) is Hornady’s Custom Grade New Dimension Series I 2-die set for .222 Remington, built around the company’s Zip Spindle sizing die and in-line bullet seating system. The elliptical expander is smoother than a standard ball expander and reduces friction and case-neck stretch during sizing, while the in-line seating system holds the bullet, case neck, and seating stem in alignment before the bullet ever enters the case. A built-in crimper in the seater die saves a press station, and Hornady backs the whole set with a no-risk lifetime warranty.

Key Specifications

  • Chambered for .222 Remington.
  • Set includes a full-length size die and a bullet seater die.
  • Sizing die uses Hornady’s Zip Spindle design, which locks positively to eliminate slippage while still allowing fine incremental adjustment.
  • An elliptical, internally threaded expander replaces a standard ball expander, cutting friction and case-neck stretch during sizing.
  • The in-line bullet seating system aligns the bullet, case neck, and seating stem before the bullet enters the case for more consistent seating.
  • A built-in crimper in the seater die lets you crimp without giving up a station on your press for a separate crimp die.
  • Hornady’s Sure-Loc lock rings clamp around the full die body, so the locking screw never contacts the threads.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many dies are in this set? Two: a full-length size die and a bullet seater die, everything needed to reload this cartridge from resizing through seating.

What makes the elliptical expander different from a standard ball expander? It’s internally threaded so it can’t pull loose, and its shape produces smoother neck sizing with less friction and case-neck stretch than a standard ball expander.
