Will the Redding 66109 die set resize .223 Remington cases for my .222 Remington rifle?

No, this die set is strictly calibrated for standard .222 Remington brass only and will not size .223 Remington, .222 Rem Mag, or .224 Valkyrie cases. Handloaders must use the correct caliber-specific dies to ensure proper chambering and safety in their firearms.

What press threading and shellholder do I need to set up this die set on my reloading bench?

The Redding 66109 features industry-standard 7/8"-14 threading, making it fully compatible with most standard single-stage and progressive reloading presses. You will also need to separately acquire a Redding Shellholder #10, such as the standard part #11010 or competition part #11610.

How precise is the bullet seating adjustment on the micrometer head included in this kit?

The standard bullet seating die is equipped with a micrometer head featuring fine adjustment graduations of 0.001" or less. This allows precision handloaders to seat projectiles to exact cartridge overall lengths consistently and dial back to known depths without resorting to trial-and-error.

Does this die set include metric graduations for the seating depth adjustments?

No, the seating micrometer on the Redding 66109 is calibrated in imperial increments of 0.001" inches. Handloaders who specifically desire metric graduations should instead look at SKU 51109.

222 Rem Die Set - Redding 66109

The Redding 222 Rem Premium Series Full Length Die Set (part number 66109) is a precision 2-die reloading system engineered to resize fired brass cases and seat projectiles for the .222 Remington cartridge. Built with industry-standard 7/8"-14 threading to fit standard single-stage and progressive presses, this set restores fired brass to factory SAAMI dimensions for reliable chambering across bolt-action and repeating rifles. The set includes a full-length sizing die equipped with a low-friction carbide expander button and a standard seating die topped with an imperial micrometer adjustment head.

Key Features

Carbide Size/Expander Button: Fitted inside the full-length sizing die to reduce internal neck drag and friction during the expansion stroke, eliminating the requirement for heavy inside-neck lubrication and reducing case neck stretch.
Bullet Seating Micrometer: Features fine adjustment graduations marked in 0.001" increments on the seating die head, enabling exact cartridge overall length (COAL) adjustments without trial-and-error.
Full-Length Sizing: Resizes the entire case body and shoulder of .222 Remington brass to ensure reliable feeding and chambering across various rifle actions.
Standard Thread Mounting: Employs 7/8"-14 threading for direct compatibility with standard single-stage and progressive reloading presses.

Who is the Redding 222 Rem Premium Series Full Length Die Set for?

Australian varmint hunters — sizes fired .222 Remington brass back to factory SAAMI dimensions to ensure smooth feeding in field rifles used for controlling rabbits, hares, and foxes out to 200–300 metres using standard 7/8"-14 threading presses.
Precision handloaders and sport shooters — provides micro-adjustability via the seating die's 0.001" increments, allowing reloaders to precisely dial in cartridge overall length and seating depth for consistent .222 Remington target ammunition.

Less suitable for: Handloaders seeking metric seating graduations (who require metric-calibrated die SKU 51109), shooters reloading alternate calibres such as .223 Remington, .222 Rem Mag, or .224 Valkyrie, or single-rifle bolt-action shooters who want to fire-form cases without full-body sizing, who are better served by a 3-die neck sizing set such as SKU 68109.
