The Redding Type S - "Elite" Bushing Die Set (.284 Winchester) is a 3-die reloading package designed for precision cartridge preparation and match-grade bullet seating. Built for standard 7/8"-14 threaded reloading presses, this mechanical die set provides comprehensive brass management for 0.284 in (7mm) projectiles. It incorporates interchangeable neck sizing bushings alongside a micrometer-adjustable bullet seater, allowing handloaders to precisely regulate neck tension and projectile alignment while minimising brass fatigue and concentricity runout.

Key Features

• Dual Sizing Configuration: Includes both a Type S Bushing Full Length Sizing Die (for restoring full SAAMI dimensions) and a Type S Bushing Neck Sizing Die (for sizing fire-formed bolt-action brass to maximise case life).
• Interchangeable Bushing System: Accepts interchangeable neck bushings from 0.310" minimum to 0.318" maximum to control neck tension in precise 0.001" increments without overworking case necks (bushings sold separately).
• Competition Bullet Seater: Features a sliding alignment sleeve that centers the cartridge case before bullet entry, paired with a micrometer head adjustable in 0.001" increments for repeatable seating depth.
• Press Compatibility: Fits industry-standard single-stage and turret reloading presses utilising standard 7/8"-14 thread interfaces.

Who is the Redding 284 Winchester Type S - Elite Die Set for?

• F-Class Competition Shooters — Requires this 3-die set to size .284 Winchester cases using interchangeable bushings ranging between 0.310" and 0.318" to maintain exact neck tension across competitive shot strings.
• Long-Range Precision Target Shooters — Relies on this reloading die set featuring a sliding alignment sleeve and micrometer head adjustable in 0.001" increments to eliminate bullet runout and achieve repeatable seating depths on 0.284 in projectiles.
• Handloaders Seeking Custom Concentricity Control — Utilises this reloading die set to switch between full-length and neck-only sizing using the dual-die configuration mounted to standard 7/8"-14 threaded presses without overworking brass.

Less suitable for: Handloaders seeking simple full-length sizing for standard hunting rifles without bushing adjustments, who are better served by a non-bushing standard 2-die set, or reloaders who only require full-length match resizing without neck-only options, who are better suited to a 2-die match bushing full-length set.
