The Redding Type S Full Length Bushing Sizing Die (MPN: 77111) is a precision reloading tool designed for .223 Remington and 5.56×45mm cartridge cases. It resizes the entire cartridge body and resets shoulder headspace while using interchangeable sizing bushings to provide exact control over case neck tension. Featuring industry-standard 7/8"-14 mounting threads, it installs into standard single-stage and progressive reloading presses without requiring mains power or electrical compliance.

  • Interchangeable Bushing System: Accepts standard Redding neck sizing bushings in .001" increments (typically .243" to .251" for .223 Remington) to set exact neck tension without overworking the brass.
  • Self-Centering Float Design: Sizing bushings float freely within the die cap to self-centre over the case neck, minimising concentricity runout during sizing.
  • Configurable Decapping Assembly: Ships with both an expander button for unturned factory brass and a decapping pin retainer for neck-turned cases, preventing unnecessary brass work-hardening.
  • Body Die Conversion: Removing the internal decapping rod assembly and neck bushing allows the die to operate purely as a body die to bump shoulders without altering neck dimensions.
  • Standard Press Fit: Built with standard 7/8"-14 mounting threads and designed for use with the Redding #10 Standard Shellholder (Part #11010) or Competition Shellholder #11610.

Who is the Redding Type S Full Length Sizing Die For 223 Remington for?

  • Precision Handloaders — requires full-body case resizing and precise neck dimensioning for .223 Remington cases, using a standard 7/8"-14 thread die interface that fits universally across standard reloading presses.
  • Varmint Hunters — relies on consistent chambering reliability across high-volume batches of .223 Remington cartridges by restoring fire-expanded brass to standard factory dimensions while retaining uniform bullet release.
  • Long-Range Target Competitors — requires micrometer-level neck tension adjustment across .001" increment bushing ranges to minimise bullet runout for .224" projectiles loaded into 5.56×45mm chambers.

Less suitable for: Firearm platforms with undersized or tight match chambers experiencing feeding failures, which require a small base full length sizing die, or shooters processing fire-formed brass exclusively dedicated to a single bolt-action chamber that has not developed chambering resistance, where a neck-only sizing die is preferred.
