Precision-engineered straight-line seating die with air-floating stem technology. Micrometer adjusts in .001" increments for repeatable, concentrically-seated bullets. Purpose-built for competition reloaders.
The Redding Competition Seating Die represents the current pinnacle of straight-line bullet seating technology. This is not hyperbole—it is the result of uncompromising engineering and manufacturing precision.
Redding has solved the concentricity problems that plague conventional seating dies through a revolutionary seating stem system. The precision-ground seating stem floats on a column of air, eliminating friction and binding that degrades concentricity. The stem diameter is ground to match bullet diameter exactly, ensuring perfect alignment without the slop found in lesser designs.
Tighter manufacturing tolerances throughout the die ensure:
The calibrated micrometer adjusts in .001-inch increments and operates infinitely without clicks. A setting feature allows you to establish and return to your preferred seating depth—critical for maintaining consistency across multiple reloading sessions.
If you demand the best in reloading precision, this die delivers. Built for competitors and serious handloaders who understand that concentricity matters.
