The Hornady Match Grade Die Set with Click-Adjust technology delivers precision reloading capabilities for .257 Roberts cartridges. This professional-grade die set eliminates guesswork in bullet seating depth through its innovative click-adjust mechanism that provides repeatable, measurable adjustments.
What Makes This Different
The click-adjust seating die features audible and tactile clicks that correspond to precise .001-inch bullet seating depth adjustments. This system allows reloaders to make consistent, repeatable changes without measuring tools or trial-and-error methods. The match-grade construction ensures concentricity tolerances within .002 inches, significantly tighter than standard reloading dies that typically maintain .005-inch tolerances.
Key Features
- Click-adjust seating die with .001-inch incremental adjustments
- Match-grade tolerances maintain .002-inch concentricity specifications
- Hardened steel construction with precision-ground surfaces
- Full-length sizing die removes case stretch and restores dimensions

This die set excels in precision rifle applications where consistent ammunition performance directly impacts accuracy. Competition shooters benefit from the repeatable seating depth adjustments when developing optimal loads for specific bullets and powders. The full-length sizing die handles fired cases from various chambers, making it suitable for bolt-action rifles, single-shots, and semi-automatic platforms chambered in .257 Roberts.
