pgb Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Just acquired an old reloading press Does anyone have a manual for a redding model 16 shotgun cartridge reloading press? Looked on Redding website,it appears they were discontinued sometime in the seventy's, Any help much appreciated. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saddler Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Got one too. Very well designed little unit. Ahead of it's time in some ways. Like the supported chamber, similar to the Ponsness Warren system. No manual with mine...not found any old copies scanned onto other forums or available as pdf downloads...and I've checked most ofthe main US sites. I'd be interested in anything you find. Surprised there is not more out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgb Posted September 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Yes looks a very well engineered unit, I will let you know if I find any info, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matone Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 They`re a good machine,I`ve had one since the 80`s.Very little info online I`m afraid and no mention of spares anywhere which I find strange as they must have built lots of `em ! Thomas Bland kept spares years ago . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roughshooter Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 I did have a manual in pdf format which was sent to me by redding however I can't locate where I stored it on the computer. I found the Lyman one in a folder and thought I had put it in there but obviously not! It may be on my old laptop so will have a look over the next few days but if you email customer services at redding they will send you a copy Regards Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pity nobody is turning out spares for them. Not sure what size bushing I have in mine...the round bar makes them awkward to make: no doubt technology will catch up in time & someone will be able to make affordable parts for it and other older presses.

Someone somewhere will have bushings ! I bought spare ones years ago from Blands who kept a range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
