The Hornady Custom Grade Series I 2-Die Set for 25-06 Rem gives reloaders a purpose-built toolset engineered for consistent, reliable ammunition assembly. This two-die rifle reloading set includes a full-length sizing die and a bullet seater die, designed to handle the demands of 25-06 Remington handloads with the precision Hornady is known for. Whether you're working on a precision rifle, hunting load, or range ammunition, this set delivers the control and consistency you need at the bench.
Built into this die set are several features that separate Hornady's approach from basic tooling. The sizing die uses a Zip Spindle Design that locks positively to eliminate slippage, with fine-threaded adjustment for incremental tweaks or rapid larger movements. The elliptical expander—a Hornady exclusive—outperforms traditional ball expanders by sizing the case neck smoothly while significantly reducing friction and case stretch. The seater die employs an in-line bullet seating system that aligns the bullet and case neck before the bullet enters the case mouth, promoting consistent seating depth and enhanced accuracy.
Hornady backs this set with Sure-Loc lock rings that apply constant pressure around the die's full circumference and a retainer ring that disassembles in seconds for cleaning. The seater includes a built-in crimper for those who want to crimp without dedicating a separate press station. Each set comes packed in a compartmentalized, stackable storage box with all components organized and labeled.

Frequently Asked Questions
What caliber is this die set for?
This is a 25-06 Remington die set. It is specifically configured for that cartridge and not compatible with other calibers.
What dies are included in this two-die set?
The set includes a full-length sizing die and a bullet seater die. Both incorporate Hornady's Custom Grade precision engineering and are stored together in the compartmentalized box.
Do I need a separate crimper die, or is one included?
The seater die includes a built-in crimper, so you have the option to crimp during the seating stroke without purchasing or setting up a separate crimp die. This option lets you save a station on your press if desired.
What makes the elliptical expander different from a standard ball expander?
Hornady's elliptical expander is designed to size the case neck more smoothly than a ball expander, significantly reducing friction and case neck stretch. The internal threading also prevents it from pulling loose during normal use.
