RCBS Full Length 2 Die Set .17 Hornet Product description

  1. Full Length Sizing: This two-die set includes a Full Length Sizing Die, meticulously engineered to return fired cases to their factory dimensions, critical for reliable feeding in bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles. It also serves to efficiently decap spent primers during the sizing process.

  3. Unmatched Durability: Each die is constructed from heat-treated steel, ensuring exceptional strength and resistance to wear. The dies feature polished surfaces that minimize friction, preventing brass galling and extending case life while ensuring smooth operation.

  4. User-Friendly Design: Designed for straightforward setup and operation, these dies provide reliable performance for both novice and experienced reloaders. The simple, robust design ensures consistent results with every pull of the press handle, making handloading accessible and efficient.
