Is the Redding Type S Decapping Rod #10722 compatible with my .308 Winchester or 6.5 Creedmoor Type S dies?

No, this specific model is engineered for longer cases like the .30-06 and WSM family. Short-action calibres such as .308 Winchester, .243 Win, and 6.5 Creedmoor require shorter replacement rods like part #10712 or #10721.

Does this mechanical reloading component require any Australian electrical certifications like SAA or RCM?

No, as a purely mechanical and unpowered workshop component, electrical standards such as 240V compliance, SAA, and RCM certifications do not apply to this product.

How do I ensure proper setup and depth adjustment when installing this replacement rod in my Type S die?

The rod features full vertical length adjustability inside the die body, allowing you to accurately set your primer ejection depth. You can configure it with an expander ball or strip it down with just a decapping pin retainer without disturbing the free-floating positioning of the neck sizing bushing.

Q: Can I use this decapping rod in a Redding Competition Bushing Neck Sizing Die?

No, the #10722 is strictly designed for standard Redding Type S Bushing Full Length Resizing Dies and Type S Bushing Neck Sizing Dies. Competition series dies require dedicated competition decapping stems.

The Redding Type S Decapping Rod – .30-06 / WSM (Part #10722) is an OEM replacement spindle designed for standard Redding Type S Bushing Full Length Resizing Dies and Type S Bushing Neck Sizing Dies. Manufactured in the USA from heat-treated, precision-machined steel, this decapping rod restores factory function to dies with spindles that have been bent or damaged by stuck cases, off-centre flash holes, or heavy military primer crimps. It is engineered specifically to accommodate medium-to-long standard cases and short-fat magnum cartridges, including .30-06 Springfield, .30-06 Improved, the Winchester Short Magnum (WSM) family (.270 WSM, 7mm WSM, .300 WSM), .284 Winchester, 7x57mm Mauser, and .303 British.

Key Features

Direct Factory Replacement: Restores factory alignment and operation in standard Type S bushing sizing dies when replacing a damaged spindle rod.
Modular Expander Configuration: Accepts standard steel expander balls, carbide expander buttons, or a stripped-down decapping pin retainer for reloaders sizing neck tension solely via external bushings.
Independent Depth Adjustment: Offers vertical length adjustment within the die body, allowing precise primer ejection depth setup without impacting the free-floating positioning of the neck bushing.
Precision Machined Steel: Built from heat-treated steel to maintain rigidity during primer punch-out while fitting standard small and large decapping pins.

Who is the Redding Type S Decapping Rod - 30-06, Wsm for?

Precision handloaders reloading .30-06 Springfield ammunition — requires a dedicated replacement decapping rod measuring across an approximate 20 g to 45 g component weight profile that correctly matches the 63.3 mm (2.494 in) case length geometry of the standard .30-06 cartridge inside Type S sizing dies.
Handloaders loading short-fat magnum cartridges within the WSM family — utilizes this die decapping rod to clear the wide-body internal shoulder profile of 53.34 mm (2.100 in) length WSM cases without contacting internal die walls during the depriming stroke.
Reloaders maintaining and servicing Redding Type S bushing dies — relies on an exact heat-treated steel spindle to replace bent factory rods in medium-to-long action Type S dies, restoring correct primer pin retention without altering the free-floating clearance of external sizing bushings.

Less suitable for: Handloaders sizing short-action cartridges under 52 mm in case length (such as .308 Winchester, .243 Winchester, or 6.5 Creedmoor) who require shorter decapping rods, reloaders running full-length belted magnums or ultra-magnums exceeding 64 mm in case length who need longer magnum-length spindles, or users of Redding Competition Bushing Neck Sizing Dies who require dedicated competition sliding depriming assemblies.
