Redding Big Boss II Press Kit .38 Special/.357 Magnum Product description

  1. Single-Stage Precision: The Redding Big Boss II is a single-stage reloading press renowned for its accuracy and consistency. By performing one operation at a time, it grants reloaders complete control over each step, from sizing to bullet seating, which is crucial for producing match-grade ammunition. This deliberate process helps achieve exceptional uniformity, desired by competitive shooters and precision hunters.

  2. Robust O-Frame Design: Built around a heavy-duty cast iron O-frame, the Big Boss II press offers unmatched strength and rigidity. This robust construction minimizes frame deflection during high-pressure operations like sizing rifle brass, ensuring that precise die alignment is maintained. The solid foundation contributes to the press's outstanding durability and long service life, even under demanding reloading volumes.

  3. Smooth, Powerful Operation: Equipped with a massive 1-inch diameter ram and an advanced compound leverage system, this press delivers remarkable power and smooth operation. The design reduces effort for the user, allowing for comfortable and efficient reloading sessions. This combination of strength and ergonomic design makes it suitable for reloading even the largest magnum cartridges with ease.

  4. Versatile Caliber Handling: While this kit is specifically configured for .38 Special and .357 Magnum, the Big Boss II press itself is highly versatile. Its standard 7/8-14 die thread accepts virtually any reloading die, and a quick-change shellholder system allows reloaders to effortlessly switch between a vast range of pistol and rifle calibers. This adaptability makes it a valuable asset for any handloader's bench.
