The Hornady 38 Super Auto Expander Die is a dedicated reloading die designed to streamline your handgun ammunition setup. If you're loading 38 Super Auto rounds, this expander die handles the critical step of opening the case mouth to the right diameter—making it faster and easier to seat loose powder and bullets before final crimping. It's the kind of specialized tool that separates efficient reloaders from those fighting with stubborn brass.
Built for straight-walled handgun cases, this die features precision machining that delivers smooth operation and consistent results with every pull of your press handle. Hornady's Custom Grade reloading dies are engineered to exacting tolerances, so you get the reliability and durability that serious handloaders depend on. Whether you're producing match-grade practice ammo or hunting loads, this expander die works as a standalone tool or as part of a complete die set.
Setup and adjustment are straightforward—no fussy alignment or complicated procedure. Once dialed in, it will perform shot after shot without wear or degradation. If you're committed to reloading 38 Super Auto and want to eliminate the hassle of hand-expanding cases or struggling with tight case mouths, this is the tool that pays for itself in saved time and fewer loading errors.

The expander die uses standard reloading press tooling, but compatibility depends on your specific press model and die compatibility. Check your press manual or contact us to confirm fit with your equipment.
An expander die opens the case mouth uniformly before you seat powder and bullets. It's not always mandatory—some loaders skip this step—but it significantly improves consistency, reduces loading errors, and makes the seating process smoother, especially if you're working up precision loads.
You receive the Hornady 38 Super Auto Expander Die. It is a standalone die; it does not include a complete die set, press, or other reloading equipment.
Hornady Custom Grade dies are built to exacting specifications and are designed to perform reliably for a lifetime of reloading without wear or damage—provided they are maintained and used correctly.
