How do the Redding #07 Competition Shellholders adjust headspace without altering the sizing die?

The set includes 5 individual shellholders stepped in increments of +0.002, +0.004, +0.006, +0.008, and +0.010 inches over the standard 0.125-inch deck height. By swapping shellholders, you alter the depth to which the brass enters the die, allowing precise shoulder bump adjustments while maintaining solid die-to-shellholder contact on your press.

Is this shellholder set compatible with my 6.5x55mm Swedish Mauser brass and standard reloading presses?

Yes, the #07 set is specifically machined for the 6.5x55mm Swedish Mauser rim profile and fits standard universal press ram slots across major brands like Redding, RCBS, Lyman, and Hornady. Please note that it operates strictly within the +0.002 to +0.010 inch adjustment envelope.

Are there any electrical compliance or SAA/RCM certifications required for using this tool in Australia?

No, electrical certifications such as SAA or RCM and 240V compliance are not applicable to this product. It is a purely mechanical, non-powered precision reloading accessory constructed from heat-treated alloy steel designed for workshop environments.

What related products do you recommend to complement this shellholder set during the reloading process?

For optimal results when resizing brass, pairing this set with Redding 07500 Imperial Sizing Die Wax Case Lube ensures smooth case entry and prevents stuck brass. Additionally, if you are refining neck tension alongside shoulder bump, the Redding 73244 Precise Neck Sizing Bushing is an excellent pairing.

Reloading Shellholder Set - Redding 11607

The Redding #07 Competition Shellholder Set (MPN: 11607) is a precision 5-piece mechanical reloading accessory engineered to control headspace and cartridge shoulder bump during full-length resizing. Standard industry shellholders feature a nominal deck height of 0.125″; this set provides matched shellholders with stepped deck heights from 0.127″ to 0.135″. By altering deck depth in precise +0.002″ increments, handloaders can match resized cartridge dimensions directly to a rifle's chamber without altering sizing die depth or backing off the die, eliminating press deflection and die alignment runout.

Key Features

Five-Piece Incremental Set: Includes five shellholders stepped in +0.002″, +0.004″, +0.006″, +0.008″, and +0.010″ offsets over standard nominal deck height.
Hard Die-to-Shellholder Contact: Allows full contact between the die base and the shellholder ram, maintaining square mechanical alignment throughout the sizing stroke.
Distinct Finish and Identification: Features a black oxide finish with clearly engraved offset values on each shellholder.
Dedicated Calibre Fit: Machined specifically for the #07 rim profile, matching the 6.5×55mm Swedish Mauser cartridge family.
Universal Press Mount: Compatible with standard single-stage and turret reloading press rams, including Redding, RCBS, Lyman, and Hornady models.

Who is the Redding #07 Competition Shellholder Set - 6.5x55 for?

Long-range precision handloaders using 6.5×55mm Swedish Mauser — establishes precise cartridge shoulder setback within a +0.002″ to +0.010″ envelope, ensuring cases fit custom or minimum-spec chambers while keeping the sizing die firmly seated against the press ram.
Benchrest and PRS shooters seeking consistent headspace and enhanced brass life — provides stepped adjustments up to +0.010″ over the standard 0.125″ deck height, preventing over-resizing and working the brass shoulder only the exact amount required for reliable chambering.

Less suitable for: Handloaders running cartridges outside the #07 rim profile, or rifles requiring zero/negative bump below nominal 0.125″ or exceeding +0.010″ of shoulder relief; these applications require alternative calibre-specific competition sets (such as #1 or #10) or custom-modified standard shellholders.
