The Redding Reloading Stainless Steel Pilot Stop – .17 Caliber (MPN: 06117) is a precision reloading accessory engineered to center sub-calibre cartridge cases during neck inspection and case preparation. CNC-machined from solid stainless steel, this tool guides .17 calibre (.172″) case necks over small 9/64-inch (approximately 3.57 mm) mandrels. It features a proprietary undercut profile specifically shaped to avoid contact with case mouth burrs, chamfer irregularities, and the neck/shoulder junction, ensuring smooth rotation and consistent dial indicator readings on neck measurement tools.

Who is the Redding 17 Cal. Pilot Stop - For 9/64 Mandrel for?

  • Benchrest handloaders prepping .17 Hornet brass — Requires precise neck wall uniformity sorting, using this reloading case neck gauge pilot to center .172″ case necks over small 9/64-inch (3.57 mm) mandrels without catching on case mouth irregularities.
  • Varmint rifle reloaders sorting .17 Remington and .17 Fireball cases — Relies on a dedicated .17 calibre case neck pilot stop to maintain concentric alignment on 9/64-inch (approx. 3.57 mm) shafts when checking runout or setting uniform flash-hole deburring depths.

Less suitable for: Handloaders prepping larger calibres such as .20 or .22 calibre, or any tools utilizing standard 3/16-inch (approx. 4.76 mm) mandrels; these setups require dedicated calibre-specific pilot stops sized for larger diameter shafts. It is also unsuitable for rotary case trimmers, which require dedicated trimmer cutter pilots.
