Hornady Full Length Die .350 Legend .355"
The Hornady Full Length Die for .350 Legend .355" is purpose-built for reloaders who demand precision and consistency from their ammunition. Whether you're loading for your lever-action rifle or single-shot hunting rig, this full length die handles the complete resizing operation—ensuring every cartridge chambers reliably and performs to potential. Hornady's Custom Grade dies combine precise machining with practical design features that make the reloading process smoother and more forgiving than budget alternatives.
The die's internal profile is precision machined and polished to a high finish, which means cases move through the sizing chamber without the sticking or drag you'd encounter with rougher tooling. This smooth operation isn't just about comfort—it reduces wear on your brass and extends case life, saving you money over hundreds of reloads. The Sure-Loc locking ring clamps around the entire die body with constant, even pressure, keeping everything square and stable in your press. Unlike older designs, the locking screw tightens the ring without threading into the die itself, so you won't strip the threads or risk the ring slipping during a critical reload session.
A standout feature is Hornady's expander system. Instead of a basic ball expander that can stretch and work-harden case necks, this die uses an elliptical expander design that sizes the neck more intelligently. The internal threading means it won't pull loose mid-operation, and the geometry is refined enough that you won't need a separate expander die if you're working with closely related calibers. For hand-loaders who respect consistency and want dies that perform as advertised, the Hornady Full Length Die is a solid, dependable choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Hornady die work in my single-stage or turret press?
Yes. Hornady dies are designed to fit standard 7/8"-14 thread press stations found on nearly all single-stage, turret, and progressive reloading presses. Check your press documentation to confirm compatibility.
What's the difference between this full length die and a neck-sizing die?
A full length die resizes the entire cartridge case—body, shoulder, and neck—to the specifications of your reloading die. This is the standard choice for most rifle reloaders and produces ammunition that chambers reliably in any rifle of that caliber. Neck-sizing dies only size the neck portion and are typically used by precision hand-loaders who have already fire-formed their brass to a specific rifle.
Do I need a separate expander die with this Hornady die?
No. The integrated elliptical expander is designed to handle the neck expansion as part of the full length sizing process. The internal threading prevents it from pulling loose, and Hornady engineered the geometry to reduce case stretch compared to traditional ball expanders.
What .350 Legend bullets will work with the .355" specification?
The die is sized for .355" diameter bullets. We recommend checking your bullet manufacturer's specifications and any load data you're using to ensure compatibility with your specific bullet choice.
