Hornady 546301 Custom Grade 2-Die Set 6.5-284 Norma Sizing Seater

The Hornady 546301 Custom Grade Series I 2-Die Set delivers precision reloading capabilities for the 6.5-284 Norma cartridge. This professional-grade die set includes both full-length sizing and bullet seating dies engineered to match chamber specifications. Competitive shooters and precision handloaders rely on these dies for consistent ammunition that maximizes the 6.5-284 Norma's long-range potential.

What Makes This Different

Hornady's Custom Grade dies feature tighter manufacturing tolerances than standard production dies, with each die individually inspected for dimensional accuracy. The sizing die incorporates an elliptical expander that reduces case neck tension variations by up to 50% compared to traditional ball expanders. Internal surfaces receive a polished finish that minimizes brass flow resistance and extends case life through reduced work hardening.

Key Features

• Full-length sizing die with elliptical expander for consistent neck tension
• Bullet seating die with built-in crimping capability
• Heat-treated steel construction with polished internal surfaces
• Includes detailed reloading instructions and load data
• Compatible with standard 7/8-14 thread reloading presses
• Engineered specifically for 6.5-284 Norma chamber dimensions
• Zip-Spindle design on seating die for easy bullet alignment

The 6.5-284 Norma's exceptional ballistic coefficient and velocity potential shine through when ammunition is loaded with consistent dimensions. These dies maintain brass concentricity within 0.002 inches, supporting sub-MOA accuracy at extended ranges. Long-range competitors appreciate the consistent bullet seating depth that eliminates velocity variations, while hunters benefit from reliable feeding and consistent point of impact across temperature ranges.
