The Redding Type S Full Length Resizing Die (MPN 77318) provides full-length case resizing and shoulder bumping for .22 PPC USA cartridge cases while maintaining precise control over neck tension. Built with standard 7/8"-14 threading, this mechanical reloading die mounts directly into standard single-stage and turret reloading presses. It utilizes a freely floating, self-centering bushing system to size the case neck, minimising bullet runout and preventing excessive working of brass necks.

Key Features

• Bushing-Controlled Neck Tension: Uses interchangeable Redding neck sizing bushings (sold separately in 0.001" increments) to adjust neck diameter and tension without overworking cartridge brass.
• Self-Centering Bushing Design: Allows the internal bushing to float and center itself on the case neck during the sizing stroke, promoting concentricity.
• Dual Assembly Configurations: Ships with both an expander button and a decapping pin retainer, enabling decapping and sizing without the expander ball to eliminate neck stretching.
• Body Die Functionality: Can be converted into a dedicated body and shoulder bump die by removing the internal decapping rod assembly and bushing.
• Adjustable Sizing Depth: Decapping rod assembly adjusts vertically to allow partial or full-length neck sizing.

Who is the Redding 22 PPC USA Type S Full Length Die for?

• Australian Benchrest Competitors — requires match-grade case concentricity and precise neck tension management for .22 PPC USA rifles using standard 7/8"-14 threaded reloading presses.
• Precision Target Handloaders — requires exact 0.001" neck tension increments via interchangeable bushings while resizing the full case body down to .22 PPC USA chamber specifications.
• Varmint Hunters — requires reliable cartridge feeding and chambering across custom .22 PPC USA bolt-action rifles by sizing the entire case body on a 7/8"-14 thread press interface.

Less suitable for: Fire-formed brass dedicated solely to a single bolt-action rifle where body resizing is unnecessary (a neck-only bushing die or competition neck sizing die is better suited), or cartridges outside the .22 PPC USA chambering such as 6mm PPC variants or non-PPC calibres.
