What mandrel size is required to use the Redding 06127 Pilot Stop?

The Redding 06127 Pilot Stop is specifically engineered for use with standard 3/16-inch mandrels. It is important to note that mandrels other than 3/16 inch are incompatible with this specific pilot stop, so you should verify your existing setup before purchasing.

Can I use this pilot stop for calibres other than .270?

No, this model is explicitly machined for the .270 calibre and 6.8mm family of cases. Using cases smaller or larger than the nominal .270-inch diameter requires a different dedicated pilot stop, such as a .25 or 7mm model.

What tools and applications is the Redding 06127 designed to work with?

This pilot stop is designed for use with Redding's Case Neck Gauge and Flash Hole Deburring Tools that accept a 3/16-inch mandrel. It positions and supports cartridge cases during precision neck wall thickness measurement and helps prevent over-insertion during prep work.

Does this reloading accessory require any electrical certification or power source for use in Australia?

As an entirely manual, non-powered precision stainless steel reloading accessory, electrical specifications, Australian mains plugs, and SAA or RCM regulatory electrical certifications are completely not applicable.

Redding 06127 Pilot Stop - Redding 06127

The Redding 06127 Pilot Stop is a precision reloading accessory engineered to position and support .270 calibre and 6.8mm cartridge cases during case preparation and inspection. Designed specifically to mount onto standard 3/16-inch (0.1875 in / ~4.76 mm) mandrels—such as those found on the Redding Case Neck Gauge—this tool ensures accurate case alignment when measuring neck wall thickness and uniformity with a dial indicator. Precision-machined from stainless steel, it provides a stable mechanical stop that prevents over-insertion during neck-turning, reaming, or flash-hole deburring setups.

Key Features

Undercut Design: Features a specialized undercut profile that prevents the pilot from catching on internal neck/shoulder junctions or case mouth burrs, ensuring smooth rotation and true dial indicator readings.
Precise Measurement Support: Mounts securely over a 3/16-inch mandrel to stabilize the cartridge case during neck wall concentricity and thickness checks.
Depth Limitation: Functions as a physical stop to maintain uniform depth control and prevent over-cutting during case neck preparation.
Stainless Steel Construction: Machined from solid stainless steel to resist wear and maintain dimensional tolerances over high-volume reloading sessions.

Who is the Redding Pilot Stop for .270 Calibre with 3/16" Mandrels for?
