Are neck sizing bushings included in the Redding 60155 Elite Bushing Die Set?

No, neck sizing bushings are not included in this die set and must be purchased separately. Redding recommends a bushing range from 0.333" to 0.341" for the .308 Winchester calibre, depending on your brass wall thickness and loaded cartridge neck diameter.

Can I use this die set to reload .308 Winchester ammunition for a semi-automatic rifle like an AR-10?

While the set includes a Type S Full-Length Sizing Die that can be used for semi-automatics, Redding specifies that a Small Base Die is typically preferable for semi-automatic, pump-action, or lever-action platforms to ensure fully reliable chambering and cycling. Neck-only sizing should be reserved exclusively for bolt-action rifles with fire-formed brass.

What shellholder do I need to mount this die set on my reloading press?

The Redding 60155 die set features a standard 7/8"-14 thread pitch compatible with most single-stage and turret presses. You will need an industry-standard #1 shellholder, such as the Redding PN 11001 or the Redding Competition Shellholder #1 (PN 11601), which are sold separately.

Do these precision steel dies require any special electrical certifications or SAA/RCM compliance for use in Australia?

No, electrical compliance and SAA/RCM regulatory marks do not apply to this product. The Redding 60155 is a purely mechanical, precision-machined steel handloading tool set with no powered components.

.308 Reloading Die Set - Redding 60155

The Redding Type S - Elite Bushing Die Set .308 Winchester (MPN: 60155) is a precision three-die handloading kit engineered for match-grade cartridge assembly. Designed for use with standard 7/8"-14 threaded reloading presses, this set provides complete control over neck tension, case dimensions, and bullet alignment for .308 Winchester brass. The kit combines full-length and neck-only sizing capabilities with micrometer-adjustable bullet seating to minimise concentricity runout across competitive shooting and precision hunting applications.

Key Features

Type S Full-Length Bushing Sizing Die: Bumps the case shoulder, sizes the body, and precisely sizes the neck using interchangeable neck bushings without overworking the brass. It can also function as a body die by removing the bushing.
Type S Bushing Neck Sizing Die: Sizes only the neck while retaining fire-formed body dimensions for cases dedicated to a specific bolt-action rifle chamber.
Competition Bullet Seating Die: Utilises a micrometer top adjustable in 0.001" increments alongside a floating alignment sleeve that centres both the projectile and cartridge case prior to seating to reduce runout.
Interchangeable Decapping Assembly: Includes a decapping rod with a polished steel expander button that can be operated with or without the expander based on neck-turning requirements.

Who is the Redding 308 Win Type S - Elite Bushing Die Set for?

Precision long-range target shooters using bolt-action rifles — provides neck-only sizing that preserves fire-formed case dimensions for dedicated chambers, utilizing interchangeable neck bushings within the 0.333" to 0.341" range to set uniform bullet release tension.
Handloaders developing match-grade ammunition for PRS or F-Class competitions — delivers precise cartridge overall length control via the Competition Bullet Seating Die, which adjusts in fine 0.001" increments and uses a floating sleeve to minimize projectile runout on .308 Winchester loads.

Less suitable for: Handloaders loading for semi-automatic platforms, pump-action, or lever-action rifles, where full-length resizing is required to guarantee feeding; a small-base full-length sizing die set is better suited to ensure reliable cycling in tight semi-automatic chambers.
