Lee Precision 92187 Factory Crimp Die 22 ARC Reloading Die

The Lee Precision 92187 Factory Crimp Die delivers consistent case mouth crimping for 22 ARC cartridges, ensuring reliable chambering and optimal bullet retention. This precision-engineered die applies factory-specification crimps that enhance feeding reliability in AR-15 platforms and bolt-action rifles.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard roll crimp dies, the Factory Crimp Die uses a collet system that crimps into the cannelure or crimping groove without affecting overall cartridge length. This design maintains precise headspace while providing the exact amount of crimp needed for consistent ignition. The die works with both cannelured and non-cannelured bullets, making it versatile for various 22 ARC loading applications.

Key Features

• Collet-style crimping system maintains consistent overall length
• Works with cannelured and smooth bullets for maximum versatility
• Precision-machined steel construction with carbide sizing ring
• Standard 7/8"-14 threading fits all major reloading presses
• Factory crimp specifications ensure reliable feeding and extraction
• Includes detailed loading instructions and crimp adjustment guide
• Compatible with Lee Auto-Breech Lock and standard press systems

The Factory Crimp Die produces ammunition that cycles reliably in gas-operated semi-automatic rifles where consistent case tension is critical. Competition shooters benefit from the uniform bullet pull that contributes to shot-to-shot velocity consistency. The die's ability to work with various bullet weights from 55 to 90 grains makes it suitable for both precision target loads and hunting applications. Weather-resistant finish prevents corrosion during long-term storage.
