The Redding 22 Cal. Pilot Stop - For 3/16 Mandrels (MPN: 06122) is a precision reloading accessory designed to center and support rifle brass during case neck measurement and preparation. CNC-machined from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, this pilot stop fits onto standard 3/16-inch diameter tool shafts, including the Redding Case Neck Gauge and Redding Flash Hole Deburring Tools. Its specialized undercut geometry intentionally clears interior neck-to-shoulder junctions and mouth burrs, providing smooth case rotation and highly repeatable readings on dial indicators without binding.

Key Features

  • Precision Undercut Profile: Machined with a specific relief geometry to prevent contact with internal case mouth burrs and shoulder junctions, ensuring consistent case alignment.
  • Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Manufactured from solid CNC-machined stainless steel for long-term wear resistance and corrosion protection on the reloading bench.
  • Standard Mandrel Fit: Engineered with a 3/16-inch internal diameter interface to fit Redding case neck tools and standard 3/16-inch aftermarket shafts.
  • Targeted Calibre Fitment: Sized specifically to support the internal neck dimensions of .22 calibre (.224-inch diameter) cartridge cases.

Who is the Redding 22 Cal. Pilot Stop - For 3/16 Mandrels for?

  • Precision Handloaders — requiring a .22 calibre (.224-inch) pilot stop to securely center cartridges like the .223 Remington and .22-250 Remington on a 3/16-inch mandrel during case preparation.
  • Competitive Target Shooters — measuring case neck wall thickness uniformity on a dial gauge using a dedicated .22 calibre (.224-inch) pilot stop that prevents internal burr contact on 3/16-inch shafts.

Less suitable for: Handloaders prepping sub-calibre cases such as .17 or .20, larger calibres such as 6mm, 6.5mm, or .30 cal, or those operating 9/64-inch mandrels; these applications require distinct, calibre-matched pilot stops or alternative small-diameter mandrel assemblies.
