The Redding Series A Full Length Die Set for 6.5x55mm SE Swedish Mauser is a precision two-die system designed to resize fired bottleneck cases and seat bullets to factory specifications. Machined from heat-treated alloy steel with hand-polished internal surfaces, the set includes a full-length resizing die with an integrated decapping rod assembly and steel expander button, alongside a standard bullet seating die with a built-in crimp ring. Both dies feature industry-standard 7/8"-14 threads to mount directly into standard single-stage and turret reloading presses.

Key Features

• Full-Length Resizing: Restores fired brass to factory SAAMI/CIP dimensions, bumps the case shoulder for reliable headspace, and decaps spent primers in a single stroke.
• Precise Bullet Seating: Houses a dedicated bullet guide and seating plug to align and seat 0.264" (6.5mm) diameter projectiles consistently, with an integrated roll crimp for hunting rounds.
• Durable Construction: Built from heat-treated alloy steel for wear resistance across high-volume reloading sessions.
• Complete Setup: Supplied with a spare decapping pin, hex wrench, and a hard storage box that doubles as a reloading block.

Who is the Redding Full Length Die Set for 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser for?

• Australian medium game hunters — requires full-length resizing to factory dimensions on 6.5x55mm Swedish brass to guarantee smooth chambering and dependable cycling across hunting rifles in field conditions.
• Target shooters — seats 0.264" diameter projectiles with uniform depth and alignment using standard single-stage or turret presses fitted with 7/8"-14 threads.

Less suitable for: Precision competition shooters firing brass exclusively through a single, custom-chambered rifle who require neck-tension control without resizing the case body; a dedicated neck-sizing die set or a Type-S bushing die set serves that application better.
