Redding Neck Die .338 Lapua Magnum Type S

1. Unmatched Precision for .338 Lapua Magnum: The Redding Neck Die .338 Lapua Magnum Type S is engineered to deliver exceptional concentricity and consistent bullet tension, optimizing performance for this powerful long-range caliber. By sizing only the case neck, it preserves the fire-formed dimensions of the case body, reducing the need for frequent full-length resizing and extending brass life.

2. Bushing-Style Design: As a Type S die, it utilizes interchangeable Redding Competition Bushings (sold separately) to allow handloaders to fine-tune neck tension precisely. This adaptability is crucial for achieving optimal bullet release and consistent muzzle velocity, making it a favorite among competitive shooters and precision hunters.

3. Durable Hardened Steel Construction: Crafted from robust, heat-treated steel, this die is built to withstand the rigors of high-volume reloading. Its precise machining ensures smooth operation and long-term durability, maintaining its critical dimensions for years of reliable use, even with demanding magnum cartridges.

4. Enhanced Brass Longevity and Accuracy: By critically minimizing work-hardening of the brass, this die significantly extends the lifespan of your valuable .338 Lapua Magnum cases. This gentle handling, combined with superior concentricity, translates directly into improved accuracy and tighter groups downrange, a paramount concern for all serious riflemen.

ABOUT THE Redding Neck Die .338 Lapua Magnum Type S

The Redding Neck Die .338 Lapua Magnum Type S stands out in its class by focusing on precision and brass preservation, a stark contrast to standard full-length sizing dies that resize the entire case. This specialized die is designed for serious handloaders, particularly precision shooters and hunters who demand the utmost accuracy and longevity from their .338 Lapua Magnum ammunition. Its key technical property is the bushing-style neck sizing, which allows for exact control over neck tension—a critical factor for consistent bullet seating and reliable ignition. Constructed from hardened steel and meticulously machined, this die ensures minimal runout and superior concentricity, translating directly into tighter groups. It’s ideal for bolt-action rifles where cases are typically fire-formed to the chamber, as it avoids unnecessary resizing of the case body, thereby extending brass life and improving shot-to-shot consistency.
