Lee Precision 25-06 Rem Rifle Precision Micrometer Bullet Seat Die
The Lee Precision 25-06 Rem Rifle Precision Micrometer Bullet Seat Die brings repeatable, dead-length bullet seating to your handloading bench without the premium price tag. Whether you're loading match ammo or hunting rounds, this die lets you dial in exact seating depth using an easy-to-read micrometer thimble marked in thousandths of an inch—just like a precision depth gauge. The floating bullet guide keeps your case and bullet perfectly aligned during seating, and the machined, burnished seating stem handles nearly any bullet point style without marking or damage.
Lee's reversible floating bullet guide is a standout feature: simply unthread and reinstall it to set up simultaneous seating and crimping in a single stroke. That flexibility saves you time and die space on a compact press setup. The micrometer adjustment is infinitely variable, so you can dial in the exact seating depth your loads demand, then dial back to that same setting load after load. When used in dead-length mode, the die body contacts the shell holder for precise, uniform seating—no guesswork, no variation.
This is purpose-built reloading equipment for handloaders who want consistent, accurate ammunition and refuse to overpay for it. If you're already invested in a Lee press or progressive setup, or if you're building a single-stage bench, this die pairs well with standard 7/8-14 threaded presses and fits naturally into a full 25-06 Rem reloading kit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What press is this die compatible with?
The Lee Precision 25-06 Rem Precision Micrometer Bullet Seat Die has a standard 7/8-14 thread and works with any single-stage or progressive press designed for that thread size, including Lee's own presses and most other common reloading press brands.
Can I use this die for both seating and crimping?
Yes. The reversible floating bullet guide is an exclusive Lee feature. You can unthread and reinstall the guide to set up the die for simultaneous seating and crimping in a single stroke, saving you a separate die if your press setup permits it.
How do I set the seating depth?
Use the laser-engraved micrometer thimble on the die body. It reads just like a precision depth micrometer, with each division representing one thousandth of an inch. Once you dial in the exact seating depth you need, you can return to that same setting for every round in the batch.
Will this die damage soft-point or hollow-point bullets?
No. The seating stem is machined and burnished to seat nearly any point style bullet without marking or damage to the projectile.
