 MIGHTY ARMORY MATCH SERIES RIFLE SIZING DIE INSTRUCTIONS

 MIGHTY ARMORY TNT MATCH SERIES PISTOL SIZING DIE INSTRUCTIONS 

Step 1: Clean die bore before use. Step 2: Turn the die into your press tool head until mouth makes contact with plate or shell holder. Step 3: Lock it down.   

Keep your die bore and body well oiled when not in use. DO NOT USE AEROSOL LUBE PRODUCTS ON MIGHTY ARMORY DIES. We recommend the use of a quality case lube particularly on AP and Automated Presses.  This reduces heat and decreases pressure.  For best results use 99.9% alcohol and PEG 75 Lanolin mixed at 8:1.  Spray cases completely, let dry for 30 minutes.  PEG 75 is water based and wipes away with ease.  

 OPTIONAL TNT MATCH DECAPPING KIT: If used with the TNT spring loaded decapping shaft, lube should be used to prevent brass filings from sticking to the bore when operating on automated presses that cycle above 1000 per hour.   

 

MIGHTY ARMORY SEATING DIE INSTRUCTIONS 

 Ensure the bullet barrel is inside the die bore. Do not extend outside the mouth of the bushing. 

 Option 1. Set a round in your plate or shell holder. Turn the die down to mate with the top of the bullet face. Lock the die down. 

 Option 2. Set a max length round in your plate or shell holder. Turn the die down to mate with the bullet face. Turn the adjuster shaft down to achieve the desired COL. 

 Note:  The bullet barrel height adjustment shaft will be a bit tight at first.  As the die is used and adjusted the shaft will become easier to turn up and down. 

 

MIGHTY ARMORY CASE HOLD DOWN DIE INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAGNUM & SHORTY BULL

Step 3: Insert a case into the station where the die will be placed.  

Step 4: Lower the tool head all the way down.  

Step 5: Turn the die into the tool head until the shaft makes contact with the floor of the case (web).  

Step 6: Back out ¼ turn and lock it down. This allows the case swage to find the pocket center.

MIGHTY ARMORY TNT TAPER CRIMP DIE INSTRUCTIONS

The TNT die can be used without lube. A quality case lube reduces friction on ram, AP & Automated presses. This reduces heat and decreases pressure. For best results, use 99.9% alcohol and PEG Lanolin mixed at 10:1. Spray cases and let dry for 30 minutes. PEG 75 is water based and wipes away with ease.
