The Redding Type S – "Elite" Bushing Die Set (.338 Lapua Magnum, Model 60594) is a dedicated three-die precision reloading system built for handloaders assembling match-grade ammunition for 0.338" bullet diameter platforms. Designed with standard 7/8"-14 threading to fit conventional reloading presses, this mechanical set includes a Type S Full-Length Bushing Sizing Die (Part #77594), a Type S Bushing Neck Sizing Die (Part #71594), and a Competition Bullet Seating Die (Part #55594). It allows reloaders to precisely control neck tension via interchangeable self-centring bushings and seat projectiles with minimal runout using a micrometer-adjustable sliding alignment sleeve.
Key Features
- Three-Die Elite Configuration: Contains full-length bushing resizing, neck-only bushing resizing, and competition seating dies for complete case-forming control.
- Interchangeable Bushing System: Utilises standard Redding neck sizing bushings across a recommended 0.360" to 0.368" diameter range (bushings available separately) to prevent overworking case brass.
- Decapping Versatility: Includes both a standard sizing expander button and a decapping pin retainer for sizing brass without internal neck expansion.
- Competition Micrometer Seating: Features an internal sliding sleeve that aligns the case and projectile before seating, managed by a top-mounted micrometer head graduated in 0.001" increments.
- Press Compatibility: Machined with industry-standard 7/8"-14 threads for compatibility with single-stage and turret reloading presses using standard #35 shellholders.

Who is the Redding 338 Lapua Magnum Type S - Elite Bushing Die Set for?
- Extreme long range target shooters — requires exact neck tension across a 0.360" to 0.368" recommended bushing range combined with 0.001" micrometer seating depth adjustments to assemble match-grade .338 Lapua Magnum ammunition.
- F-Class competitors — benefits from this 338 Lapua Magnum reloading die set's internal sliding alignment sleeve and 0.001" graduated micrometer head to minimise bullet runout for consistent long-range accuracy.
- Hunters assembling custom match cartridges — requires the 7/8"-14 threading interface and dual full-length and neck-only sizing dies to tailor brass fit to specific 0.338" bullet diameter rifle chambers.
Less suitable for: Handloaders assembling heavily compressed powder charges, as the excessive force can damage the 0.001" internal micrometer seating stem mechanism; standard non-micrometer seating dies are better suited for compressed loads.
