Availability: In Stock
The Lee Precision 92179 Factory Crimp Die for 22 Creedmoor brings precision seating control to your reloading bench. This die uses a collet-based crimping system that applies a rifle-style crimp directly to the case neck, eliminating the guesswork and ensuring consistent bullet seating on every round you load. Whether you're assembling match ammo for the range or hunting loads for long-range shots, a properly crimped cartridge delivers the accuracy and velocity consistency that separates good groups from great ones.
The collet mechanism is powerful enough to form a crimp groove on bullets that don't have one pre-cut, making it exceptionally versatile for handloaders who work with a variety of bullet styles. That firm, uniform crimp does more than hold the bullet in place—it raises the pressure threshold before the bullet moves during the initial stages of ignition, which translates to a higher and more consistent start pressure. The result is a flatter, more predictable pressure curve and tighter velocity spreads shot to shot, crucial for precision rifle work and long-range hunting where every fps counts.
This is a steel die (not carbide), built to Lee's proven standards for consistent, reliable performance across your reloading workflow. If you're serious about ammunition quality and consistency, especially for a modern cartridge like 22 Creedmoor, the Factory Crimp Die belongs in your die set.

A factory crimp die, like this Lee model, uses a collet system to apply a rifle-style crimp that grips the case neck around the bullet. It's more powerful and consistent than standard crimp dies, and it can form a crimp groove even on bullets that don't have one pre-cut.
No. The collet in this die is powerful enough to form a crimp groove on the case neck, so bullets without a pre-cut groove will work just fine.
A firm, uniform crimp raises the pressure threshold before the bullet begins to move, which promotes a higher and more consistent start pressure. This results in a more uniform pressure curve and less velocity variation shot to shot—both key factors in precision reloading.
No, the Lee Precision 92179 is a steel die.
