The Redding Series A Full Length Die Set is a two-die set engineered for full-length resizing and seating of .223 Remington/5.56 NATO bottleneck cases. The set pairs a full-length (FL) resizing die—complete with a decapping rod assembly and neck expander—with a seating (ST) die that includes an integrated bullet guide, crimp ring, and seating plug. Redding notes that their dies are machined on precision lathes, heat treated, hand polished, and ultrasonically cleaned prior to packaging. All dies use the industry-standard 7/8-14 threaded bodies for broad press compatibility.
