The Hornady Series 1 2-Die Set for .22LR .224 Caliber Reloading (Model 546213) is a solid starter package for rifle reloaders working with .22 Long Rifle ammunition. This two-die set bundles everything you need to process fired cases and seat bullets for consistent, reliable handloads without reaching for multiple vendors. Built on Hornady's Custom Grade New Dimension platform, it's designed to handle the basic operations of full-length sizing and bullet seating with the precision that serious reloaders expect.
The full-length sizer die uses Hornady's Zip Spindle technology—a feature that prevents the spindle from slipping during adjustment by cutting shallow threads into both the spindle and collet. That means fewer frustrations at the press when you're dialing in sizing depth, and less chance of accidentally loosening your setup mid-session. The seating die includes a floating bullet alignment sleeve and stem that pre-positions the bullet and case before seating occurs, helping you maintain consistent bullet-to-case geometry and supporting tighter accuracy. The die also applies a crimp to lock the bullet in place once seated.
This set arrives in a plastic storage box with two Sure-Loc rings included, so you can mount both dies on your press without additional ring purchases. Keep in mind that a shellholder (the device that holds the case during sizing) is sold separately—confirm you have the correct one for .22LR before you load. If you're stepping into .22 handloading or rounding out a reloading bench with dependable, no-frills dies, this Hornady two-die set offers straightforward performance at a practical price point.
| Caliber | .22LR .224 |
| Die Count | 2 (Full-Length Sizer + Seating Die) |
| Included Rings | 2 Sure-Loc rings |
| Packaging | Plastic storage box |
| Model | 546213 |
Yes, a shellholder is required but sold separately. You'll need the correct shellholder for .22LR ammunition to complete your press setup.
This 2-die set includes a full-length sizer die and a seating die with integrated crimp. A 3-die set would add a separate crimping die for shooters who prefer independent crimp control, but for most .22LR reloaders, the 2-die approach is sufficient and economical.
These dies are designed for standard single-stage and progressive presses that accept standard die threads. The Sure-Loc rings are included, but confirm your press is compatible with standard Hornady dies and ring sizes.
The floating bullet alignment sleeve in the seating die pre-aligns the bullet and case before the actual seating stroke. This helps maintain consistent bullet seating depth and concentricity, which supports more accurate and reliable ammunition.
