Redding Reloading Equipment Proudly Announces The New Benchmark in Precision Handloading Dies

Dec 18, 2023

Cortland, NY….. Redding Reloading Equipment announces the new benchmark in precision handloading.  The revolutionary “Z Series” Die Family utilizes Larger, Stronger and more Robust 1” die bodies.  

Redding engineering has proven that the modern high performance cartridge designs of today are severely taxing the capabilities of traditional 7/8” reloading dies.  The 7/8” diameter became the industry standard in the post WWII era, but today’s new cartridge designs provide numerous reasons to question that standard.  In short, it is all about the strength of material, the stresses induced and the deformation that occurs in the die itself.

With the revolutionary “Z Series” Dies, the handloader can see, feel and measure and the difference.  Based on relative strength, the “Z Series” Dies are as much as 2X stronger than traditional 7/8” dies.  Extensive lab testing has shown that this increased strength and rigidity provides significantly reduced sizing effort as well as more consistent and measurable sized case dimensions.      

The initial “Z Series” offering will include single dies, die sets and bushing dies in (31) popular cartridges from 284 Win to 375 (9.5×77).  The new “Z Series” Dies are readily adaptable to most reloading presses marketed today with a simple die bushing change.  Redding is now also offering new “Z Series” Turret heads to increase the flexibility of the ever-popular Redding T-7 Press.

Redding continues to provide the needed capability to produce high quality loadings for all requirements in preparation for a competition or trip to the field.  Through its entire range, Redding Reloading products have been designed, produced and tested to exemplify quality and precision.
