When you're neck sizing to squeeze the most life and accuracy out of your 6.5 Creedmoor brass, there comes a point where cases start dragging on the way into the chamber. That's exactly what the Redding Body Die is built to fix. It full length resizes the case body and bumps the shoulder back to proper spec for clean chambering, and it does all of that without ever touching the neck. No internal parts, no neck work, just the body and shoulder brought back into line.
Think of this as the teammate to a bushing-style neck sizing die or a Lee Collet die. Neck sizers leave the body in its fire-formed state, which is great for accuracy, but after a handful of reloads the brass expands enough that bolt close gets stubborn. Run those cases through the body die, bump the shoulder a thousandth or two, and your rounds drop right back in. It restores reliable feeding while still letting you keep your neck sizing routine intact.
Since this one works the body of the case like a standard full length die, external case lube is a must before you run brass into it. Redding builds these with internal dimensions matching their full length sizers, except the neck area is left open so the neck diameter stays untouched. Dialing in your shoulder bump with a set of calipers and a comparator takes the guesswork out and keeps your headspace consistent, which is where precision 6.5 Creedmoor loads really come together.
Built from steel and made in the USA, this die carries the tight manufacturing tolerances Redding has earned its reputation on. It ships in a plastic storage case to keep it clean and protected between sessions. For anyone running a neck-only program who wants a simple, dependable way to keep brass chambering smooth, this is the tool that gets it done.
It full length resizes the case body and bumps the shoulder back to proper position for easy chambering, without sizing the neck at all. It has no internal parts and is meant for brass that has gotten tough to chamber after repeated firing and neck sizing. Think of it as the cleanup tool that keeps your fire-formed brass feeding right.
Yes. The body die intentionally leaves the neck alone, so you'll pair it with a neck sizing die or collet die to set your neck tension. A lot of precision reloaders run a neck-only program and then use the body die every few firings once the brass starts getting snug in the chamber.
You do. Because it works the body of the case just like a full length sizing die, external case lube is required to avoid sticking a case. A light, even coat of lube before each case keeps the process smooth and your brass happy.
Most reloaders aim to push the shoulder back about .001 to .002 inches from the fire-formed measurement, just enough to chamber without excess play. Using calipers with a shoulder comparator takes the guesswork out and keeps your headspace consistent from case to case. Start with the die backed off, measure, and dial it in gradually until you hit your target bump.
