Factory Crimp Die Caliber 222 Remington LEE for Reloading and Precision Shooting

90816

Lee Factory Crimp Die for .222 Remington caliber cartridges.

 

This precision-engineered crimp die is specifically designed to provide a flawless and consistent crimp on your metallic cartridges, ensuring optimal bullet retention and enhanced ballistic performance.

 

Unlike conventional crimping dies, this Factory Crimp Die firmly secures the projectile to the case neck with superior grip strength, without causing any deformation or damage to the brass casing or bullet jacket, preserving the integrity of each round.

 

The die features a specialized collet mechanism that compresses the case mouth precisely into the cartridge’s crimp groove, delivering a secure and repeatable crimp that withstands the rigors of semi-automatic and lever-action firearm cycling.

 

Extensive testing conducted by Lee has demonstrated that employing the Factory Crimp Die results in a more uniform chamber pressure curve, which directly translates into improved shot-to-shot consistency and enhanced accuracy downrange.

 

Remarkably, even projectiles lacking a dedicated crimp groove benefit from this die, achieving tighter groupings and superior ballistic stability due to the enhanced bullet hold.

 

The application of a proper crimp increases the initial resistance to bullet movement, requiring a higher ignition pressure before the projectile begins to travel down the barrel. This elevated initial pressure ensures a smoother and more predictable pressure curve throughout the firing cycle.

 

Consequently, shooters experience reduced velocity variation and improved overall precision, critical factors for competitive shooting, hunting, and tactical applications.

 

This crimp die is highly recommended for use with semi-automatic and lever-action rifles chambered in .222 Remington, where consistent bullet retention is paramount to reliable feeding and cycling.

 

Please note: the Shellholder is not included and must be sourced separately to match your reloading press specifications.

 

Constructed from durable, heat-treated steel to withstand repeated use and maintain dimensional accuracy over time.

 

Compatible with reloading presses that accept the standard 7/8"-14 thread pattern.

 

Supplied in a protective plastic storage case for convenient organization and transport.
