Hornady 546201 Custom Grade 2-Die Set 204 Ruger Sizing Seater

The Hornady 546201 Custom Grade Series I 2-Die Set delivers precision reloading components specifically engineered for 204 Ruger cartridges. This matched die set combines Hornady's proven manufacturing standards with features that ensure consistent case preparation and bullet seating for optimal accuracy.

What Makes This Different

Custom Grade dies feature tighter manufacturing tolerances than standard production dies, with bore dimensions held to ±0.0005 inches. The sizing die includes an expander ball designed specifically for 204 Ruger case dimensions, while the seating die incorporates a built-in crimping ring. Both dies utilize Hornady's Sure-Loc lock rings that prevent movement during extended reloading sessions.

Key Features

• Full-length sizing die with tapered expander for smooth case resizing
• Seating die with built-in roll crimp and micrometer adjustment
• Sure-Loc lock rings prevent die movement under pressure
• Fits all standard 7/8"-14 thread reloading presses
• Includes detailed reloading data and instructions
• Hardened steel construction with corrosion-resistant finish
• Compatible with both new and once-fired 204 Ruger brass

The sizing die processes cases to SAAMI minimum specifications, ensuring reliable chambering in all 204 Ruger firearms. The seating die's micrometer adjustment allows precise bullet depth control in 0.001-inch increments, critical for accuracy in this high-velocity cartridge. Both dies handle the 204 Ruger's small case capacity and sharp shoulder angle without excessive working of the brass.
