Hornady 546291 Custom Grade 2-Die Set 6.5 Grendel Sizing Seater

The Hornady 546291 Custom Grade Series I 2-Die Set delivers precision reloading capabilities specifically engineered for 6.5 Grendel cartridges. This professional-grade die set ensures consistent ammunition performance through advanced manufacturing tolerances and heat-treated steel construction. Reloaders achieve match-grade accuracy with reduced case preparation time compared to standard die sets.

What Makes This Different

Hornady's Custom Grade dies feature tighter manufacturing tolerances than conventional reloading dies, producing more consistent cartridge dimensions shot after shot. The full-length sizing die includes an expander ball that's precisely machined to .002" tolerance, while the seating die incorporates a built-in crimping feature for secure bullet retention. These dies undergo additional quality control steps and individual inspection before packaging.

Key Features

• Full-length sizing die with precision expander ball for consistent neck tension
• Seating die with built-in bullet crimping capability
• Heat-treated steel construction rated for 10,000+ reloading cycles
• 7/8"-14 threading compatible with all standard reloading presses
• Includes detailed instructions with recommended powder charges and OAL specifications
• Factory-polished interior surfaces reduce case extraction force
• Titanium nitride coating on critical wear surfaces

This die set excels in competitive shooting applications where ammunition consistency directly impacts group size and point of impact repeatability. The 6.5 Grendel's ballistic efficiency combined with precisely formed cases produces effective performance at extended ranges up to 800 yards. The dies maintain dimensional stability under high-volume reloading sessions, making them suitable for both match competitors and hunters preparing seasonal ammunition loads.
