Reloading 45-70 Government ammunition demands dies built to handle the demands of a powerful rifle cartridge, and the Hornady Custom Grade Series II 3-Die Set for 45-70 Gov delivers exactly that. This three-die reloading set includes everything you need to resize, expand, and seat rounds—a full-length sizer die, seater die, and expander assembly—all engineered from select heat-treated steel designed to last through thousands of reload cycles without wear or breakage under normal use.
Whether you're working up loads for a Sharps rifle, a modern lever action, or a single-shot target gun, this die set handles the cartridge's generous case dimensions and pressure curves. Hornady backs the durability of their Custom Grade dies with a lifetime guarantee against wear and breakage, so you can reload with confidence. The set ships complete with Zip Spindle decap assembly and double-flat lock rings already installed—no hunting for compatible components or struggling with cheap single-flat rings. Everything fits neatly into the custom plastic die box, making storage and transport straightforward.
The Custom Grade Series II designation reflects Hornady's mid-range offering; the construction quality and materials are equal across their series lineup, so you're investing in proven die engineering without premium pricing. If you're a serious 45-70 reloader—whether you're loading cast or jacketed bullets for hunting, historical rifle competitions, or long-range accuracy work—this set provides the precision and durability that serious handloaders expect.
