Rogc Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I have managed to pick up some secondhand reloading equipment including a Redding Ultramag press, a set of Lee Dies and also a Redding die I could do with a set of instructions for the press, as I dont seem to be able to fing these anywhere on the net. It is currently fitted with a large rifle primer holder, I would like to change this for a small rifle primer holder. I have found spares on Midway UK site but want to check how these are changed. In regards to the dies could someone identify what this 223 die actually is, its the one resting on the box with the micrometer adjustment. As can be seen it has a decapping pin, im unsure if this is a neck resizer or a full length resizer, and what is the purpose of the micrometer section. Im familier with the lee dies below, but would welcome some advice on the redding one. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Its a de-caping and neck sizing die, it will have a bush inserted inside the body for sizing the case neck, You change them to alter the neck tension holding the bullet in the case. The micrometer adjustment is so you can precisely alter the length of neck that is resized. Sorry i cant give a more detailed explanation. check out google or youtube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
