Hornady 545157 Match Grade Die Set 30-06 Springfield Reloading

The Hornady 545157 Match Grade Die Set delivers precision reloading capabilities for 30-06 Springfield cartridges, enabling handloaders to achieve consistent ammunition performance. This two-die set combines advanced manufacturing tolerances with Hornady's proven die geometry for superior case preparation and bullet seating accuracy.

What Makes This Different

Match Grade dies feature tighter manufacturing tolerances than standard reloading dies, with concentricity held to within 0.001 inches. The full-length sizing die uses Hornady's Zip Spindle design for smooth operation and consistent case sizing. Unlike basic die sets, these dies incorporate hardened steel construction and precision-ground surfaces that maintain dimensional accuracy through thousands of reloading cycles.

Key Features

• Two-die set includes full-length sizing die and bullet seating die
• Match Grade tolerances ensure consistent case dimensions and concentricity
• Zip Spindle technology provides smooth, reliable operation
• Hardened steel construction with precision-ground internal surfaces
• Compatible with all standard 7/8-14 TPI reloading presses

• Elliptical expander reduces case neck stress during sizing

Competitive shooters rely on consistent ammunition performance, and these dies deliver the precision needed for match-grade accuracy. The full-length sizing die properly resizes fired cases while the seating die provides uniform bullet depth and alignment. Weather conditions and temperature variations have minimal impact on die performance due to the stable steel construction and precise machining tolerances.
