Redding Type-S Neck Sizing Die Set .17 Hornet Product description

  1. Precision Neck Sizing: Engineered to resize only the case neck, this die set preserves the crucial fire-formed dimensions of your brass, significantly extending case life. This meticulous process ensures a consistent bullet pull and exceptional accuracy, making it a favorite among precision rifle shooters.

  2. Interchangeable Bushing System: The Type-S design utilizes a removable, interchangeable sizing bushing (sold separately) to precisely control neck tension. This allows handloaders to fine-tune bullet seating force for optimal performance with various bullet types and brass brands.

  3. Superior Material Construction: Crafted from robust, heat-treated steel, these dies are built for longevity and consistent performance. The polished interior surfaces minimize friction, ensuring smooth operation and reducing wear on your cases, even after thousands of reloading cycles.

  4. Enhanced Accuracy and Brass Longevity: By sizing only the neck, the die minimizes brass stretching and fatigue, leading to more reloads from each case and less trimming over time. This preserves the original concentricity of the case and bullet, crucial for achieving sub-MOA groups in hunting and target shooting scenarios.
