The Lyman H&I Lube and Sizing Die .225 (Model: LY-HI225, Part Number: 2766463) is a precision-engineered reloading tool designed for bullet casting enthusiasts. This mechanical, hand-operated accessory allows reloaders to resize cast lead projectiles down to a uniform .225-inch (approximately 5.715 mm) diameter while simultaneously applying bullet lubricant into the grease grooves. Built from hardened solid steel, this die ensures dimensional consistency across high-volume production runs. It is fully cross-compatible with several industry-standard lubricator-sizers, making it a versatile addition to any Australian reloading bench.

• 90-Degree Hole Spacing: Features the "Improved" H&I design with lubrication ports spaced at 90-degree intervals, ensuring even and effortless distribution of bullet lubricant around the entire circumference of the projectile, even when utilizing modern, high-temperature hard lubricants.
• Tapered Entry Mouth: Designed with a subtly tapered mouth that guides the cast bullet smoothly into the sizing chamber, preventing lead shaving, scraping, or projectile deformation during the sizing process.
• Hardened Steel Interior: The interior sizing chamber is precision-ground and hardened to resist wear, maintaining a perfect cylindrical shape and precise tolerances over thousands of sizing cycles.
• Broad Compatibility: Offers cross-brand interchangeability, fitting perfectly into the Lyman 450, Lyman 4500 Lube Sizer, and the RCBS Lube-A-Matic-2 Bullet Sizer/Lubricator.
• Non-Powered Mechanical Operation: Requires no electricity or external power sources, eliminating any need for Australian 240V mains power, SAA safety certifications, or RCM electrical compliance.

Who It Is For:

This sizing die is specifically designed for Australian target shooters, hunters, and bullet casting hobbyists who manufacture their own .22 caliber lead projectiles, such as those for .22 Hornet, .222 Remington, or .223 Remington cast bullet loads. It is ideal for reloaders seeking precise, repeatable projectile dimensions to improve accuracy and reduce barrel leading. In Australia, reloading accessories like the Lyman H&I die are classified as hand tools and do not require a firearms license to purchase in most states and territories. However, customers should always verify their local state or territory regulations regarding ammunition reloading and casting equipment.
