The RCBS 11101 Full-Length 2-Die Set Group A for .223 Remington is the workhorse setup for reloaders who want to build consistent, reliable ammunition for one of the most popular modern rifle cartridges. This two-die set includes everything you need to full-length resize fired cases and seat new bullets—the foundational steps that keep your .223 rounds shooting clean and chambering reliably, shot after shot.
Full-length sizing takes your fired cases back to factory dimensions, bumping the shoulder and sizing the body so they'll chamber easily in your rifle. The included full-length sizing die also decaps the spent primer and uses an expander ball to bring the neck to the correct tension for bullet seating. The seater die then seats your bullet and offers a built-in crimp ring if you want to crimp the case to the bullet—a choice you control by adjusting the die height in your press. Whether you're prepping brass for precision rifle work, plinking at the range, or building hunting loads, this two-die set covers the core process. Many shooters reload hundreds of rounds through a single set before needing to replace it.
The RCBS 11101 is ideal for both new reloaders learning proper die setup and experienced shooters who simply want a dependable, proven platform. If you're just starting out, this is the kind of die set that teaches you the reloading fundamentals correctly—and then stays in your kit for years. Make sure to lubricate cases before running them through the full-length die, and consider a cartridge headspace gage to dial in your shoulder bump for peak precision.
