Overview
Built for reloaders working with 22 Creedmoor, this sizing die is intended to bring precision-focused features into a traditional 7/8-inch die format. It includes precision ground expander mandrels, full-length neck-to-extractor sizing, spring ejection for spent primers, and replaceable steel decap pins. The die is reamer cut to exacting dimensions for a true size, and the included .002 neck tension mandrel gives a defined starting point for setup, with additional increments available through the mandrel kit. It is a practical choice for hunters and shooters who want a more controlled reloading step without moving beyond a standard die footprint.
