This is a 3-die set for making flat base open tip rifle
bullets for calibers using the .224 diameter bullet. This
includes the 5.7mm, 5.56mm, .223, .220 Swift, .222 Remington,
.221 Fireball, .224 Winchester, and so forth. In fact, if
it is a 22 centerfire, with few exceptions, it uses a .224
bullet you can make with this die set.
We presently have a few variations in ogive shape (different
point forming dies) in stock. Check the ogive shape you
would like to order. You can also order additional
point forming dies (PF-1-S) on the regular page and
specify other ogive shapes. The same die set can be
used with other point form dies of the same caliber.
This die set, like all 3-die sets, can also make full
metal jacket open base (military style) FJM bullets if
you add a PUNCH-S 224 PF EXTERNAL FMJ punch. Often a
person will say they want full metal jacket bullets but
they actually mean a closed base, open tip bullet with
no exposed lead. That is the standard open tip, which
does not require anything special.
Another tip style is the lead tip, which you can make if
you add a LT-1-S 224 lead tip die in the same ogive shape.
Open tip bullets have the lead core seated inside the
jacket, and lead tip bullets have a longer lead core that
protrudes from the jacket. Obviously, you cannot make a
bullet that is both lead tip and open tip. However, you
can make either an open tip hollow point, or a lead tip
hollow point.
A hollow point bullet means that there is a conical hole
formed in the lead core. The core can be inside the
jacket, or it can be longer than the jacket. Therefore,
you can make an OT-HP by using an open tip core seat punch
with a hollow point projection, or you can make a LT-HP by
using a larger diameter core seat punch which fits the
die bore rather than the jacket ID.
