Redding Seating Die 9mm Luger Handgun Competition

1. Micrometer Adjustment: This Redding Competition Series 9mm Luger handgun seating die features an advanced micrometer adjustment for seating depth, providing highly accurate and repeatable bullet seating. Each click allows for precise adjustments of 0.001 inches, enabling handloaders to achieve exact overall length (OAL) specifications, critical for optimal accuracy and consistent ammunition performance in competitive environments.

2. Precision Seating & Crimp: Designed for competitive shooting, this die ensures bullet concentricity and a uniform taper crimp after the bullet has been seated. This two-stage process prevents bullet distortion and ensures a secure bullet hold, preventing bullet setback in semi-automatic pistols and ensuring reliable feeding and chambering, which are paramount for competitive handgunners.

3. Flushing System: The die incorporates a unique shell holder to accept the cartridge, while the bullet is guided by a seating stem. This design helps minimize variations in bullet run-out and ensures consistent pressure on the bullet during the seating process, contributing to more accurate and uniform ammunition. Its robust heat-treated steel construction guarantees longevity and consistent performance.

4. Competition-Grade Construction: As part of Redding's Competition Series, this die is built to the highest standards of precision and durability. It is meticulously manufactured in Cortland, New York, USA, from high-quality materials, guaranteeing the reliability and consistent results demanded by serious handloaders and competitive shooters who strive for the utmost accuracy in their 9mm Luger ammunition.

Crafted from robust, heat-treated steel, this die is built to withstand rigorous use, making it ideal for competitive shooters, tactical users, and dedicated hobbyists who reload thousands of rounds. It is designed for applications where precise overall length (OAL) and consistent bullet tension are paramount for achieving match-grade performance.
