Redding Competition Bullet Seating Die .17 Hornet

1. Superior Precision: This die features a micrometer-adjustable seating stem that allows for exact bullet depth adjustments in 0.001-inch increments. This level of control ensures unparalleled consistency in overall cartridge length (OAL), critical for achieving maximum accuracy in competition or hunting scenarios.

2. Competition-Grade Design: Engineered without a crimp function, this die is specifically designed to seat bullets without deforming the case mouth. This preserves case integrity and bullet concentricity, making it an excellent choice for crafting highly accurate ammunition.

3. Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality, stress-relieved steel, the die body is precision CNC-machined for exceptional durability and tight tolerances. Internal surfaces are meticulously polished to prevent scratching bullet surfaces and ensure smooth operation.

4. Enhanced Concentricity: The unique Redding Competition seating die design incorporates a sliding alignment sleeve that holds the bullet and case in perfect alignment during the seating process. This minimizes bullet runout and optimizes concentricity, leading to more consistent and accurate shots.
