The Redding Type S Match Bushing Full Length Die Set for .223 Remington (MPN: 36111) is a 2-die reloading system designed to deliver precise dimensional control and bullet concentricity. The set includes a Type S Full-Length Bushing Resizing Die (Part #77111) and a Competition Seating Die (Part #55111). The resizing die utilizes interchangeable, freely floating neck bushings to size the case neck exterior in 0.001" increments, minimizing brass work-hardening while controlling neck tension. The competition seating die incorporates an internal sliding alignment sleeve and a top-mounted micrometer to adjust bullet seating depth with repeatable precision.

Key Features

• Interchangeable Bushing System: Employs self-centering neck bushings that float inside the die cavity to optimize case neck concentricity and reduce runout.
• Micrometer Seating Head: Features a seating micrometer calibrated in direct 0.001" increments to establish exact cartridge overall length (COAL).
• Floating Alignment Sleeve: Pre-aligns the .224" diameter bullet and cartridge case inside the seating die before the seating stem engages the projectile.
• Configurable Decapping Assembly: Includes both a standard expander button for non-turned brass and a decapping pin retainer for sizing neck-turned brass without internal expander drag.
• Body Die Versatility: Internal components can be removed from the sizing die to bump case shoulders without altering neck dimensions.

Who is the Redding Type S Match Bushing Full Length Die Set for?

• Long-range precision shooters and F-Class competitors — Requires micrometer seating depth adjustments in 0.001" increments to dial in precise bullet jump on match-grade .223 Remington cartridges using standard 7/8"-14 threaded presses.
• Benchrest handloaders — Needs the Type S Match Full Die Set to control exact neck tension by utilizing interchangeable neck bushings in 0.001" steps while maintaining concentricity on Redding Shellholder #10 tooling.
• Precision varmint hunters — Relies on this 2-die set to full-length size .223 Remington brass back to standard dimensions while maintaining 0.001" micrometer seating repeatability across high-volume field loads.

Less suitable for: Standard semi-automatic rifles that experience feeding resistance, which require a small base resizing die rather than standard full-length match sizing, or dedicated bolt-action rifles with fire-formed brass where a neck-only sizing die set preserves case life without full-length resizing.
