Special Features
- The Zip Spindle design positively locks to eliminate spindle slippage and allows fast tool-free incremental adjustments, removing the frustration of conventional spindle locks that require over-tightening just to hold position between loading sessions
- The Elliptical Expander delivers smoother neck sizing with less friction and reduced case neck stretch than standard ball expanders, which is especially important with the large-capacity 300 Wby Mag case where repeated sizing can stress brass quickly
- The In-line Bullet Seating System aligns the bullet, case neck, and seating stem inside a floating sleeve before the bullet enters the case neck, producing consistent seating depth that the extreme velocities of the Weatherby Magnum platform demand for accuracy at long range
- The built-in crimper on the seating die handles roll crimping without requiring a separate crimp die or giving up an extra station on your press
- Sure-Loc lock rings clamp around the entire die body with constant pressure, keeping the locking screw off the threads to protect both die and ring from contact damage
- Hornady guarantees these dies will never break or wear out from normal use
Practical Benefits
- The full-length sizing die makes this set the right choice for reloaders who run 300 Wby Mag brass through multiple rifles or need cases sized to minimum spec for reliable bolt closure in any 300 Weatherby Magnum chamber
- Hunters loading the 300 Wby Mag for elk, moose, or large dangerous game at extended ranges will get consistent, field-ready ammunition that delivers the high velocity and flat trajectory this cartridge produces better than almost any other 30-caliber option
- The tight machining tolerances of this Custom Grade set give precision shooters the repeatable seating depth and neck tension needed to take full advantage of the 300 Weatherby Magnum's exceptional long-range ballistic potential
- Your brass will load more smoothly and last longer with the hand-polished interior finish and Elliptical Expander working together to reduce friction and neck stress on every pass through the sizing die
The Hornady Custom Grade Series I Full Length 2-Die Set (546350) in 300 Weatherby Magnum is a reliable pick for any serious handloader building accurate, high-velocity ammunition for long-range big game hunting.
