What press threading and shellholders are required to set up the Redding 92172 seating die?

The Redding 92172 features standard 7/8"-14 TPI threads, making it fully compatible with all industry-standard single-stage, turret, and progressive reloading presses used in Australia. It requires a Redding Shellholder #13 (Part #11013) or a standard industry-equivalent 9mm shellholder, which are sold separately.

Does this die apply a roll crimp or a taper crimp to 9mm Luger cartridges?

Because 9mm Luger ammunition headspaces on the case mouth, this die incorporates a built-in taper crimp ring rather than a roll crimp. This simultaneously secures the bullet and removes any remaining case flare during the seating stroke, ensuring reliable feeding in handguns and pistol-calibre carbines.

Can I achieve 0.001" micrometer-adjustable seating depth with the standard 92172 die?

The standard Redding 92172 comes with a threaded seater stem rather than a micrometer dial. If you require precise 0.001" micrometer-adjustable depth control, you will need to add the optional Redding Standard Bullet Seating Micrometer (#09072) or upgrade to the Redding Competition Bullet Seating Die (#55172).

Are regulatory approvals or electrical compliances required for operating this die in Australia?

No electrical compliance or SAA/RCM regulatory approvals apply to this product. The Redding 92172 is a purely mechanical steel reloading accessory requiring zero mains power, meaning it is unrestricted for purchase and operation across all Australian states and territories.

9mm Seating Die - Redding 92172

The Redding 92172 Seating Die is a dedicated metallic cartridge reloading tool engineered to seat .355" diameter projectiles and apply a built-in taper crimp to 9mm Luger (9x19mm Parabellum) brass. Machined from heat-treated, high-grade alloy steel with hand-polished internal surfaces, this die features an internal bullet guide to maintain concentric bullet alignment during the seating stroke. Designed to work on standard reloading presses, it simultaneously seats the bullet and closes the case flare to ensure proper headspacing on the cartridge case mouth.

Key Features

Internal Bullet Guide: Aligns the projectile concentric to the cartridge case axis during seating.
Integrated Taper Crimp: Removes case flare and applies a uniform taper crimp to maintain correct headspacing on 9mm Luger case mouths.
Precision-Machined Steel: Manufactured from heat-treated alloy steel with a hand-polished interior for consistent operation and wear resistance.
Standard Threading: Built with industry-standard 7/8"-14 TPI threads for compatibility across standard single-stage, turret, and progressive presses.

Who is the Redding 92172 Seating Die For 9mm Luger Handgun Reloading for?

IPSC and Club Handgun Competitors — Requires precise 7/8"-14 TPI press-mounted dies to simultaneously seat .355" bullets and apply a reliable taper crimp for competition 9mm Luger semi-automatic pistols.
