Redding Pro Series Die Set .45 ACP Product description

  1. NxGEN Carbide Sizing: This set includes Redding’s advanced NxGEN Carbide Sizing Die, eliminating the need for case lubrication when resizing .45 ACP straight-wall cases. The ultra-smooth, polished carbide ring ensures effortless operation, extending brass life by minimizing friction and preventing scratches or galling. Experience high-volume reloading with unparalleled efficiency and consistency.

  2. Pro-Series Bullet Seating: The dedicated Pro-Series Bullet Seating Die offers exceptional control over bullet alignment and seating depth. It features a free-floating seating stem and a micrometer-like adjustment capability, allowing reloaders to achieve precise overall cartridge length (OAL) crucial for optimal accuracy and reliable feeding in firearms. This design significantly reduces bullet deformation during seating.

  3. Precision Engineering: Manufactured in Cortland, New York, USA, Redding dies are renowned for their meticulous craftsmanship and adherence to tight tolerances. Each die is CNC-machined from robust steel, then heat-treated and polished to ensure lifelong durability and flawless cycling. This commitment to precision guarantees that every round you load meets the highest standards of quality and performance.

  4. Optimized for Handguns: Specifically designed for straight-wall handgun cartridges like the .45 ACP, this die set ensures that reloaded ammunition functions flawlessly in semi-automatic pistols and revolvers. The included Taper Crimp Die produces a crimp that is ideal for reliable feeding and prevents bullet setback, making it perfect for competitive shooters and self-defense ammunition handloaders.
