Redding Neck Die Set .45-70 Government Product description

  1. Neck Sizing Only: This specialized die set focuses exclusively on sizing the neck of the cartridge case, leaving the fire-formed body dimension untouched. This meticulous process helps maintain the precise fit between the case and your rifle's chamber, leading to improved accuracy and reduced case stretching. It's an ideal choice for shooters who prioritize custom-fit ammunition and extended brass life.

  2. Extended Brass Life: By only sizing the neck, these dies minimize the amount of work performed on the brass, preventing premature fatigue and potential case head separation. This significantly extends the number of reloads you can get from each cartridge case, offering substantial cost savings over time for high-volume shooters and avid hunters.

  3. Precision Engineering: Made in the USA, Redding dies are renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship and tight tolerances. Each die is meticulously machined from high-quality steel and heat-treated to ensure maximum durability and consistent performance, guaranteeing perfectly sized cases for every reload.

  4. Consistent Bullet Retention: The neck sizing die is engineered to provide optimal neck tension, ensuring that the bullet is held securely in place without deforming the case mouth. This consistent bullet seating contributes directly to greater projectile stability and accuracy downrange, crucial for competitive shooting and reliable hunting loads.

ABOUT THE REDDING NECK DIE SET .45-70 GOVERNMENT

The Redding Neck Die Set for .45-70 Government cartridges stands apart by focusing solely on neck sizing, a critical distinction from full-length sizing dies.

It's the preferred choice for discerning hunters, competitive shooters, and handloaders using bolt-action or lever-action rifles, where precise ammunition fit translates directly into enhanced performance and reliability in the field or on the range. This set is engineered to deliver the utmost in precision for your .45-70 Government reloading needs.
