Redding Full Length Sizing Die .17 Hornet Product description

  1. Full Length Sizing: This die meticulously restores fired .17 Hornet cases to SAAMI (Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute) factory specifications. This critical step ensures that your reloaded ammunition chambers reliably in any firearm, from bolt-action hunting rifles to semi-automatic sporting arms, preventing common feeding and extraction issues. It also efficiently decaps spent primers, preparing cases for a new primer.

  2. Precision Engineering: Like all Redding dies, this .17 Hornet Full Length Sizing Die is manufactured in the USA to the highest standards of precision. Crafted from robust, heat-treated steel, its internal surfaces are polished to a mirror-like finish, reducing friction during sizing and extending the life of your brass cases while minimizing the need for excessive lubrication.

  3. Optimal Durability: Designed for longevity and consistent performance, this die withstands the rigors of high-volume reloading. Its superior construction ensures that it maintains its exacting tolerances over thousands of reloading cycles, providing reloaders with unmatched consistency and reliability for producing match-grade ammunition.

  4. Standard Compatibility: Featuring universal 7/8"-14 threads, the Redding .17 Hornet Full Length Sizing Die seamlessly integrates with virtually all popular reloading presses on the market. This broad compatibility makes it an ideal addition to any reloader's bench, allowing for straightforward setup and efficient operation in your existing reloading system.

ABOUT THE REDDING FULL LENGTH SIZING DIE .17 HORNET

The Redding Full Length Sizing Die for the .17 Hornet stands out for its uncompromising precision and durability, positioning it as an indispensable tool for serious handloaders. Unlike neck sizing dies that only resize the case neck, this full length die works to restore the entire cartridge case body to its original factory dimensions, effectively eliminating any case stretching or expansion that occurs during firing. This is particularly crucial for reloaders using ammunition in semi-automatic rifles or rifles with tight chambers, where flawlessly sized cases are paramount for reliable feeding, chambering, and extraction. Constructed from robust, heat-treated steel, this die is engineered to endure extensive use while maintaining perfect concentricity and consistent case dimensions. Its meticulously polished interior minimizes friction, facilitating smoother resizing and protecting your valuable brass from unnecessary wear. Whether you are a dedicated hunter seeking optimal accuracy for varmint control or a sport shooter demanding consistent performance, this Redding die ensures your .17 Hornet ammunition is precisely prepared for every shot, delivering the reliability and accuracy you expect.
