Gas Check Seater Lyman Universal

For uncompromising precision reloading

When reloading your own lead bullets, installing gas checks is a crucial step. This small accessory, though often overlooked, directly influences the consistency of the bullet's flight and its accuracy. A poorly installed gas check can lead to significant variations... or even poor results at long range.

Perfect compatibility with Lyman and RCBS presses

This Gas Check Seater works perfectly with the Lyman 450 and 4500 Sizer/Lubricators, as well as the RCBS Lube-A-Matic . It inserts directly into the tool without the need for an adapter, saving time and improving accuracy with every operation.

A perfectly perpendicular positioning

Its patented design ensures that the gas check remains perfectly straight on the base of the projectile. This prevents deformations or misalignments that compromise the bullet's stability as it leaves the barrel.

Why use a gas check?

At high speeds, hot gases can deform or melt the base of a lead projectile. A gas check then acts as a thermal and mechanical shield: it protects the lead, improves the seal in the barrel, and ensures better accuracy . In practice, this reduces leading , stabilizes the projectile, and optimizes shot patterns, especially with rifles or powerful loads.

A simple, durable and indispensable tool

Machined from high-quality steel , this compact tool is built to last. Its internal shape perfectly conforms to the base of the projectile for a uniform seat. In practice, this results in more consistent shot patterns, which is particularly beneficial for long-range shooting or recreational competitions.
