Redding Bullet Seating Micrometer #17 with Seat Plug Product description

  1. Unmatched Precision: This micrometer top replaces the standard stem in your Redding bullet seating die, offering precise, repeatable adjustments of bullet seating depth down to thousandths of an inch. This level of control is paramount for achieving optimal accuracy and consistent ballistic performance, making it an essential upgrade for serious reloaders.

  2. Bullet Profile Matching: The included #17 Seat Plug is specifically designed to cradle particular bullet profiles, ensuring that pressure is applied evenly to the bullet's ogive during seating. This prevents potential bullet deformation and helps maintain the bullet's integrity and concentricity, contributing to greater accuracy downrange.

  3. Robust Construction: Crafted from high-grade, heat-treated steel, the Redding Bullet Seating Micrometer is built for enduring performance. Its durable construction ensures that it withstands the rigors of frequent reloading, maintaining its precision adjustments over countless rounds.

  4. Seamless Integration: Designed to effortlessly integrate with existing Redding bullet seating dies, this micrometer head allows for quick and easy conversion of your standard die into a precision instrument. Its intuitive design simplifies the fine-tuning process, enabling reloaders to achieve exact specifications with ease.

ABOUT THE REDDING BULLET SEATING MICROMETER #17 WITH SEAT PLUG

The Redding Bullet Seating Micrometer #17 with Seat Plug stands out as a critical enhancement for reloaders seeking unparalleled precision in ammunition crafting. Unlike standard seating stems, this micrometer assembly provides incremental adjustments, typically in 0.001-inch increments, allowing reloaders to fine-tune bullet seating depth with extreme accuracy. This meticulous control is vital for achieving optimal cartridge overall length (COAL), which directly impacts a firearm's accuracy, particularly in precision rifle shooting and competitive disciplines. Constructed from high-quality, hardened steel, this micrometer top ensures longevity and consistent performance. The included #17 seat plug is engineered to perfectly match specific bullet profiles, preventing any deformation during the seating process and promoting superior bullet concentricity. This results in more consistent ammunition, reduced flyers, and tighter groups. It is an indispensable tool for serious hunters and competitive shooters who demand absolute consistency and predictive performance from their hand-loaded ammunition.
