The Lee 3-Die Set for .22 Hornet caliber is an essential reloading kit designed for precision metallic and semi-metallic cartridge handloading. This comprehensive set of three hardened steel dies ensures consistent resizing, bullet seating, and crimping, optimized for both hunting and target shooting applications.
The kit includes the following components:
1. Full-Length Sizing Die: This die is engineered to fully resize the spent brass case, removing the fired primer and slightly expanding the neck of the case to its original dimensions. This step is critical to ensure reliable chambering and extraction in firearms, maintaining the integrity of the brass for multiple reloads.
2. Bullet Seating Die: Adjustable for precise bullet seating depth, this die allows the reloader to set the projectile at the optimal depth within the case neck. Proper seating depth is crucial for consistent internal ballistics and accuracy. Additionally, this die initiates the case neck closure, but care must be taken to avoid excessive neck crimping, which can deform the case mouth and negatively affect bullet release and pressure.
3. Factory Crimp Die: Specifically designed to apply a strong, uniform crimp to the case mouth without damaging the brass, this die is indispensable when loading cartridges intended for lever-action or semi-automatic rifles. The factory crimp ensures the bullet remains securely seated during feeding and recoil, preventing bullet setback or movement under dynamic conditions.
Additional accessories included in the set:
Shell Holder: A precision-fit shell holder compatible with standard reloading presses, ensuring secure case retention during the resizing and seating operations.
Powder Measure Tool: Facilitates accurate and repeatable powder charges, essential for safe and consistent reloading practices.
Load Data Chart: Provides recommended powder charges and load specifications, optimized for the .22 Hornet cartridge. Note that this chart does not include data for Spanish-manufactured powders; users should consult manufacturer manuals for specific powder recommendations.
For optimal performance and to prevent case damage during resizing, it is highly recommended to lubricate the brass cases thoroughly before running them through the full-length sizing die. Proper lubrication reduces friction and extends the lifespan of your brass, ensuring reliable and safe reloading cycles.
