What dies are included in the Redding 26 Nosler Deluxe Die Set and what shellholder do I need?

The 84261 set includes a Full-Length Sizing Die with a standard sizing button, a Neck Sizing Die, and a Standard Bullet Seating Die with a built-in crimp ring. It features industry-standard 7/8"-14 TPI threads to fit all major reloading presses used in Australia. Please note that a Redding #6 Standard Shellholder or Competition Shellholder is required and must be purchased separately.

Can I use the neck sizing die in this set for semi-automatic .26 Nosler rifles?

No, the neck sizing die in this deluxe set is strictly intended for bolt-action rifles where fired cases are reloaded for the exact same rifle. For semi-automatic platforms or mixed hunting brass, you must use the full-length sizing die included in the set to ensure reliable chambering and cycling.

Will this die set work for other 6.5mm cartridges like 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5 PRC?

No, this die set is built exclusively for the .26 Nosler bottleneck cartridge and its specific 0.264-inch bullet diameter. It cannot be used to size or load other 6.5mm calibres such as 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, or .260 Remington.

How should I maintain these heat-treated steel dies for long-term durability in outback conditions?

The dies are machined from precision heat-treated alloy steel and require standard anti-corrosion maintenance to prevent rust during storage or humid outback conditions. Apply a light coat of rust-preventative oil after use, store them in the provided storage box, and always use adequate case lubricant like Redding Imperial Sizing Wax to avoid stuck cases during sizing.

.26 Nosler Die Set - Redding 84261

The Redding Reloading Series B Deluxe 3-Die Set for .26 Nosler (MPN 84261) is a precision steel reloading kit designed for assembling and maintaining high-velocity bottleneck rifle ammunition. Machined from heat-treated alloy steel on precision lathes and hand-polished, this set provides the tooling required for full-length resizing, neck-only sizing, and bullet seating. Engineered with standard 7/8"-14 TPI threads, the dies mount into all standard modern reloading presses to support long-range hunting and precision target shooting handloads.

Key Features

3-Die Versatility: Contains a Full-Length (FL) sizing die with decapping assembly, a dedicated Neck (NK) sizing die, and a Standard (ST) bullet seating die.
Extended Case Life: Includes a neck sizing die that resizes only the case neck of fire-formed brass, eliminating unnecessary working of the case body to prolong brass longevity in bolt-action platforms.
Flexible Bullet Seating: Features an adjustable seating die capable of standard non-crimped precision bullet seating or applying a roll crimp when adjusted downward.
Heat-Treated Steel Construction: Built from hardened alloy steel to maintain tight internal dimensions over extended loading cycles.

Who is the Redding 26 Nosler Deluxe Die Set for?

Precision Handloaders: Charges and sizes high-capacity .26 Nosler cases using dedicated neck and full-length dies machined with 7/8"-14 TPI threading for precise concentricity and fitment in standard presses.
Long-Range Hunters and Target Shooters: Extends the service life of expensive fire-formed .26 Nosler brass by utilizing the dedicated neck sizing die to avoid overworking case bodies between firings in the same chamber.

Less suitable for: Handloaders seeking to resize other 6.5mm or .264 calibre cartridges like 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, or .260 Remington, which require their own cartridge-specific die sets; or shooters loading for multiple different rifles or semi-automatic actions where a dedicated full-length-only sizing die set is necessary to guarantee reliable chambering.
