The Redding Competition Bushing Neck Sizer Die is similar in concept to the Competition Seating Die, the cartridge case is completely supported and aligned with the sizing bushing before the sizing process begins. As the sizing process starts, the cartridge case remains supported in the tightly chambered, sliding sleeve as it moves upward, and the resizing bushing self-centers on the case neck. The micrometer adjustment of the bushing position delivers precise control to the desired amount of neck length to be sized.
Competition Series Dies offer unparalleled alignment characteristics that minimize neck and bullet runout. A decapping pin retainer is also supplied with most Type S – Bushing Dies except 17 and 20 Cal, which enables neck sizing without the use of the size button for those who sort and/or turn case necks for uniformity. Bushings are purchased separately.
The Competition Bushing Neck Die Set is recommended when used with brass that has been sorted for thickness uniformity and/or neck turned. This precision-engineered die is ideal for competitive shooters and benchrest reloaders who demand maximum control and consistency in their ammunition preparation for the powerful .338 Lapua Magnum cartridge.
