The RCBS 11401 Full Length 2-Die Set delivers precision reloading capabilities for .243 Winchester cartridges with consistent case preparation and bullet seating. This Group A die set provides the essential tools needed to produce match-quality ammunition with reliable case dimensions and optimal bullet alignment.
What Makes This Different
RCBS full-length dies feature hardened steel construction with precision-ground chambers that resize cases to SAAMI specifications while maintaining proper headspace. The included seating die incorporates a built-in crimping ring and floating bullet guide system that prevents bullet deformation during seating. These dies produce more consistent case dimensions compared to neck-sizing-only alternatives, ensuring reliable chambering in any .243 Winchester rifle.
Key Features
- Full-length sizing die resizes entire case body and neck for universal compatibility
- Bullet seating die with built-in roll crimp and floating bullet guide
- Hardened steel construction with precision-ground internal dimensions
- 7/8-14 TPI threading fits all standard reloading presses
- Expander ball sized for .243 caliber bullets (.243 inch diameter)

The full-length sizing process extends case life while ensuring chambering reliability across different rifles. Competition shooters benefit from the consistent case dimensions that promote uniform powder charges and bullet seating depth. Hunters appreciate the reliable feeding characteristics in bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles. The dies handle both new and fired brass effectively, with the sizing die removing case stretch and the seating die providing precise bullet depth control.
