The Redding 224 Wby Weatherby Magnum Full Length Die Set is a two-die reloading system engineered to process bottleneck brass cartridge cases for the .224 Weatherby Magnum. Machined from precision alloy steel and heat-treated in atmospherically controlled furnaces, this set returns fired brass to minimum SAAMI chamber dimensions and seats .224" (5.7 mm) diameter projectiles. Built to industry-standard 7/8"-14 TPI threads, these dies mount directly into standard single-stage, turret, and progressive reloading presses.

Key Features

• Full-Length Resizing: Deprimes, sizes the case body, and expands the case neck back to factory chamber specifications in a single press stroke using an integrated decapping rod assembly and neck expander button.
• Precision Bullet Seating: Includes a dedicated seating die with an internal bullet guide, seating plug, and a built-in roll crimp shoulder to establish uniform overall length and crimp tension.
• Durable Construction: Heat-treated alloy steel construction ensures tight dimensional stability under repeated reloading cycles.
• Universal Press Mounting: Standard 7/8"-14 TPI threading fits standard reloading press brands across Australia.

Who is the Redding 224 Wby Weatherby Magnum Full Length Die Set for?

• Handloaders reloading .224 Weatherby Magnum for bolt-action rifles — requires restoring fired brass cases back to factory dimensions using this full length reloading die set, which standardises brass dimensions on a 7/8"-14 TPI press to ensure reliable feeding across multiple bolt-action chambers.
• Hunters and long-range varmint shooters crafting custom ammunition — relies on seating .224" (5.7 mm) diameter projectiles to precise overall lengths while applying uniform crimp tension via the integrated roll crimp shoulder.

Less suitable for: Reloading other .22-calibre cartridges such as the standard .223 Remington or .22-250 Remington due to the distinct chamber taper and radiused shoulder profile of the .224 Weatherby Magnum (which requires a dedicated cartridge-specific die set), or unlubricated processing, as resizing bottleneck cases requires exterior case lubricant to avoid stuck brass.
