Redding Profile Crimp Die .460 S&W Magnum Product description

  1. Profile Crimp Design: This die utilizes a unique profile crimp that applies a smooth, gradual crimp to the case mouth, conforming to the bullet's shape rather than simply rolling or tapering. This method provides superior bullet pull while minimizing case distortion, enhancing accuracy and consistency for reloaded ammunition, particularly important for hunting and magnum loads.

  2. Precision Engineering: Manufactured from heat-treated steel with meticulous attention to detail, Redding dies are known for their exceptional precision. The internal surfaces are polished to a high sheen, ensuring smooth operation and preventing any marring or scratching of the brass cases, which is crucial for maximizing brass life and maintaining ammunition integrity.

  3. Enhanced Reliability: The profile crimp effectively secures the bullet, preventing undesirable setback often encountered in magnum cartridges or during recoil from powerful firearms. This significantly improves feeding reliability in firearms, making your reloads more dependable, whether for demanding hunting scenarios or competitive shooting.

  4. Versatile Application: While specifically designed for the powerful .460 S&W Magnum cartridge, this die's precise crimping capability is essential for reloaders who demand the utmost in bullet retention for highly recoiling handguns and rifles. It ensures that your handloads meet stringent standards for both performance and safety across various shooting disciplines, from hunting large game to recreational shooting.

ABOUT THE REDDING PROFILE CRIMP DIE .460 S&W MAGNUM

The Redding Profile Crimp Die for .460 S&W Magnum distinguishes itself from other crimping dies through its specialized design that applies a unique 'profile' crimp. Unlike traditional roll or taper crimps, the profile crimp gently forms the case mouth around the bullet, providing a more secure and consistent hold without overworking the brass. This innovative approach is particularly beneficial for the high-pressure .460 S&W Magnum, where bullet setback can significantly impact safety and accuracy. Crafted from robust, heat-treated steel, this die is built to withstand the rigors of high-volume reloading, offering unparalleled durability and longevity. Its precision-machined internal surfaces ensure smooth operation and prevent scoring of cases, thus extending brass life. Intended for serious handloaders, competitive shooters, and avid hunters, this die delivers ammunition with superior bullet retention, enhancing reliability and performance in demanding hunting and recreational shooting applications. It's an indispensable tool for those seeking factory-like consistency and unmatched precision in their reloads.
