The Redding 01035 Replacement Decapping Rod is a precision-machined, heat-treated steel reloading component designed to restore Redding conventional full-length and neck sizing dies. It serves as a direct factory replacement for bent, stripped, or worn spindle rods. This mechanical assembly retains the decapping pin to expel spent Boxer primers during the resizing stroke while securing the calibre-specific expander button to maintain correct internal neck dimensions on long-action magnum cases.

Key Features

  • Factory OEM Fit: Engineered to exact Redding factory tolerances to preserve die concentricity and ensure proper reach inside magnum-length cartridge cases.
  • Dual-Function Assembly: Simultaneously holds the decapping pin for spent primer extraction and anchors the expander button for neck sizing.
  • Heat-Treated Steel Construction: Precision-machined from hardened steel to withstand standard resizing pressures and prevent flexing during case entry and extraction.
  • Standard Pin Compatibility: Integrates directly with Redding #01060 standard decapping pins and Redding standard or carbide expander buttons.

Who is the Redding 01035 Replacement Decapping Rod for?

  • Handloaders reloading .257 Weatherby Magnum cartridges — Replaces damaged internal assemblies in sizing dies engineered for .257 Weatherby Magnum brass to reliably decap Boxer primers and expand case necks to a .257-inch bullet diameter.
  • Precision shooters reloading 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum ammunition — Restores concentric decapping and sizing function in full-length dies handling high-capacity 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum cases designed for 6.5 mm (.264-inch) projectiles.
  • Handloaders servicing 26 Nosler brass — Provides the required reach and factory thread engagement in standard dies to process large-capacity 26 Nosler cartridge cases utilizing standard 6.5 mm expander buttons.

Less suitable for: Standard short- or medium-action cartridges such as .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .223 Remington (which require shorter calibre-specific decapping rods), Redding Type-S or Competition bushing dies (which require dedicated bushing-style decapping assemblies), or cases with Berdan primer pockets.
