The Lee Precision 90995 Charging Die Kit is a 2-die set engineered to automate rifle powder charging on reloading presses. Designed for seamless integration with case-activated powder measures such as the Lee Auto-Drum, Auto-Disk, and Pro Auto-Disk, these dies charge rifle cases automatically on the press stroke. Unlike handgun powder-through expanding dies, this non-expanding rifle charging die kit dispenses powder directly into the case without altering or flaring the case mouth, maintaining prepared neck tension.

Key Features

• Case-Activated Dispensing: Actuates compatible powder measures automatically at the top of the press stroke for continuous charging.
• Dual-Die Coverage: Includes one Short Charging Die (supporting case lengths from 0.860 inches to 1.760 inches) and one Long Charging Die (supporting case lengths from 1.760 inches to 2.620 inches).
• Non-Expanding Rifle Design: Directs the powder charge through the drop tube into the cartridge without expanding or flaring the case neck.
• Standard Press Integration: Machined with standard 7/8"-14 reloading press threads to fit standard single-stage, turret, and progressive presses.
• Manual Workshop Operation: Entirely mechanical operation requiring no external electrical power sources.

Who is the Lee Precision 90995 Charging Die Kit For Rifle Case Reloading for?

• High-volume rifle reloaders using progressive presses — integrates with case-activated dispensers via standard 7/8"-14 reloading press threading to dispense powder continuously on progressive press strokes without manual off-press charging steps.
• Reloaders batch-charging bottleneck rifle cartridges — spans case lengths from 0.860 inches to 2.620 inches across two dies to handle calibres ranging from .223 Remington up to .30-06 Springfield without expanding the case neck.

Less suitable for: Sub-.223 calibre cases smaller than 5.56mm (such as .17 Hornet) due to powder bridging risks in the drop tube, cases exceeding 2.620 inches up to 2.810 inches which require manual feel rather than a hard stop, and straight-wall handgun cartridges requiring case-mouth flare, which are better served by dedicated powder-through expanding dies.
