The Redding Series A Taper Crimp Die set provides a controlled taper crimp for straight-wall handgun cartridges. It is intended for cartridges where the headspace is on the case mouth and where a taper crimp is preferred over a roll crimp. The taper crimp holds the bullet firmly without reducing overall cartridge length, and the set is constructed from steel for durability. The design suits revolver and other straight-wall handgun applications where consistent, gentle crimping is desired.
