Redding Body Die .17 Remington

1. Precision Body Sizing: This Redding Body Die is engineered to size only the case body, carefully adjusting the shoulder bump without touching the case neck. This specific action is crucial for maintaining the precise neck tension established during neck sizing, which is vital for consistent bullet seating and optimal accuracy, particularly for bolt-action rifles where fire-formed brass concentricity is paramount.

2. Enhanced Brass Life: By selectively resizing only the necessary part of the case, this die significantly reduces the stress on the brass. This minimal working of the case extends the lifespan of your valuable brass, allowing for more reloads per case and contributing to both cost savings and more consistent performance over time. It's a cornerstone for handloaders prioritizing long-term brass integrity.

3. Superior Material Construction: Manufactured from robust and heat-treated steel, the Redding Body Die is built to withstand the rigorous demands of frequent reloading. Its interior features a highly polished finish that minimizes friction, ensuring smooth operation and preventing any marring or scratching of your brass, preserving cosmetic and functional integrity through countless reloading cycles.

4. Optimized for Accuracy: The primary function of this body die is to precisely control the headspace and shoulder location of the case, ensuring reliable chambering in your rifle. When paired with a dedicated neck sizing die, this two-step process allows experienced handloaders, including competitive shooters and discerning hunters, to achieve unparalleled ammunition consistency, contributing directly to improvements in shot-to-shot accuracy.

ABOUT THE REDDING BODY DIE .17 REMINGTON

The Redding Body Die for .17 Remington stands out as a specialized tool for reloaders who demand the utmost precision and control over their ammunition. Unlike full-length sizing dies that resize the entire case, this particular die focuses exclusively on the cartridge body, pushing the shoulder back to achieve proper headspace and ensure effortless chambering, all while leaving the case neck untouched. This unique functionality is paramount for preserving the critical neck tension and concentricity that has been meticulously set by a separate neck sizing or bushing die. Crafted from heat-treated, high-quality steel, this die offers exceptional durability and a highly polished interior to prevent brass galling. It's an indispensable component for precision-oriented shooters, competitive marksmen, and dedicated hunters seeking to fine-tune their ammunition for unparalleled accuracy and consistency, allowing for predictable performance shot after shot. The ability to precisely control body sizing independently from neck sizing provides experienced handloaders with an advanced method to extend brass life and optimize cartridge fit, ensuring every round performs identically to the last.
