Hornady Die Set 2 6MM CREEDMOOR
Hornady Die Set 2 6MM CREEDMOOR
The Hornady Die Set 2 6MM Creedmoor is a precision-engineered reloading solution built around Hornady's Custom Grade New Dimension (CGND) Series III platform, designed specifically for the 6mm Creedmoor cartridge. This two-die set includes a Full Length Sizer Die and a Bullet Seating Die, covering everything you need to resize fired brass back to spec and seat projectiles with consistent, repeatable precision. Built from steel with internal profiles that are precision machined and polished to a smooth finish, these dies are engineered to minimise case sticking and friction, two things that can quietly undermine your reloading consistency over time. Whether you're loading for long-range target work or hunting applications, the 6mm Creedmoor is a capable and increasingly popular cartridge, and having quality dies behind your loads makes a measurable difference.
Hornady Die Set 2 6MM Creedmoor Key Features
- Custom Grade New Dimension (CGND) Series III Dies: Both the Full Length Sizer Die and Bullet Seating Die are built to Hornady's Custom Grade New Dimension standard, offering tighter tolerances and superior internal finish compared to standard production dies. Series III covers slightly less mainstream bottleneck rifle cartridges like the 6mm Creedmoor.
- Full Length Sizer Die with Zip Spindle: The sizing die restores fired brass to factory dimensions across the full case body. Hornady's Zip Spindle design locks the spindle securely in place to prevent slippage during operation and makes depth adjustments quick and positive.
- Elliptical Expander: The sizing die incorporates an elliptical expander ball that eases case neck sizing with less friction than a traditional round expander, reducing neck stretch and helping to extend brass life over multiple reloading cycles.
- In-Line Bullet Seating System: The seating die uses a floating alignment sleeve and stem that keeps the bullet, case neck, and seating stem in perfect co-axial alignment before the bullet enters the case neck. This reduces bullet tipping and runout for more consistent cartridge geometry.
- Built-In Crimper: The seating die includes a built-in crimp function, giving you the option to apply a crimp as part of the seating stroke without needing a dedicated separate crimp die. Useful for cartridges loaded for semi-auto platforms or magazine-fed bolt actions where bullet pull can be a concern.
- Bullet Diameter: Engineered for the 6mm Creedmoor with a bullet diameter of 0.243" (6.17mm).
- Thread Size: Standard 7/8"-14 (22.2mm) thread pitch, compatible with the vast majority of single-stage, turret, and progressive reloading presses on the market.
- Sure-Loc Locking Rings: Two Sure-Loc rings are included. These lock die settings firmly in place without requiring a hex key, making it faster to swap dies and return to a previously dialled-in setting.
- Locking Retainer Spring: The retainer spring removes in seconds without tools, allowing quick disassembly of the die for cleaning or inspection.
- Storage and Packaging: Supplied in a plastic storage box to keep your dies protected and organised on the bench or in the kit.
- Shellholder: Not included and must be sourced separately.
For handloaders working up loads for the 6mm Creedmoor, the Hornady CGND Series III two-die set offers a well-considered combination of precision machining, practical features, and press compatibility that suits everything from basic load development to high-volume reloading sessions. It's a solid foundation for anyone serious about getting consistent results from the cartridge.
