Description

Lee Full Length Die 223 Rem 90040

Full-length sizing die for 223 Remington rifle steel. This die necessitates the use of resizing lubricant.
 

Best Suited For

  • Reloaders using .223 Rem / 5.56 NATO rifles

  • Brass from multiple sources or unknown history
  • High-volume reloaders producing general-purpose or range ammo

When To Use It

  • When processing once-fired or mixed range brass
  • When ammunition must function across multiple rifles
  • After several firings when brass becomes hard to chamber
  • As the first step in most rifle reloading workflows

✔️ Recommended for:

  • Hunting ammo
  • Defensive or duty-style loads
  • Bulk training ammunition

FAQs

1. Why use full-length sizing instead of neck sizing?

✔️ Full-length sizing ensures maximum reliability, especially in semi-autos and mixed brass situations.

2. Do I need case lube?

✔️ Yes—this is a steel die, and lubrication is required to prevent stuck cases.

3. Can this be used for 5.56 NATO brass?

✔️ Yes, but you must follow proper 5.56 load data.

4. Does it seat or crimp bullets?

❌ No. This die only sizes and decaps—you’ll need separate dies for seating and crimping.

5. Is it good for precision shooting?

✔️ Yes, but for maximum accuracy, some shooters switch to neck sizing after initial firing.
