The Lee Precision 92220 Micrometer Bullet Seating Die for .223 Rem gives reloaders the precision depth control they need without the precision price tag. Built around a laser-engraved micrometer thimble that reads like a depth micrometer—in increments of one-thousandth of an inch—this die lets you dial in repeatable, uniform seating depth across every round you load. Whether you're fine-tuning loads for competition, hunting, or range testing, repeatable bullet seating is foundational to consistent accuracy.
The core of this die is its floating bullet guide, which holds the case mouth and bullet in perfect alignment while you seat. The guide features radial clearance so the case and guide self-align as the seating stem advances—that design minimizes bullet runout and prevents marking or damage to delicate bullet tips. Tests show this arrangement produces some of the tightest runout tolerances in a conventional seating die. The machined and burnished seating stem works with nearly any bullet profile, from flat points to hollow points to specialty hunting designs.
What sets the Lee approach apart: the floating guide is reversible. Unthread it and flip it back in to use the die for both seating and crimping in a single stroke—a feature exclusive to Lee's micrometer seating dies. When used in dead-length mode, the die body contacts your shell holder, anchoring seating depth to the cartridge overall length rather than die height, which is another layer of uniformity. It's practical engineering that punches above its weight for the investment.

Lee Precision dies are designed for standard press toolheads. Confirm your press accepts standard .223 Rem dies before purchase. For specific press compatibility questions, contact Lee Precision directly or consult your press manual.
Yes. The floating bullet guide is reversible—simply unthread and reinstall it to convert the die for combined seating and crimping in a single pull. This is an exclusive feature to Lee's micrometer seating dies.
The micrometer thimble and body are laser-engraved with division marks representing one-thousandth of an inch, so you read it like a precision depth micrometer. This makes it easy to dial in and repeat exact seating depths across multiple reloading sessions.
Yes. The floating bullet guide holds the case mouth and bullet in perfect alignment with radial clearance, allowing both to self-center as you seat. Tests show this design minimizes bullet runout better than fixed guides.
