The Redding 224 Valkyrie Type S Full Die handles full-length case sizing while giving you real control over the case neck, all in a single operation. Instead of relying on a fixed neck diameter like a standard sizer, this die uses Redding's interchangeable bushing system so you decide exactly how much neck tension you want. Swap bushings in .001-inch increments and you can tune your loads for consistency, brass life, or that last bit of accuracy on paper.
The bushing floats inside the die and self-centers on the neck of the case as it enters. That self-centering action is where the concentricity gains come from, which translates to straighter ammo and less runout at the muzzle. For a cartridge like the 224 Valkyrie that lives and dies on long-range precision, that kind of neck control makes a real difference downrange.
The adjustable decapping rod lets you reposition the bushing so you can size only part of the neck when you want to, which is handy for brass that's been fired in your chamber and only needs partial sizing. The die ships with the standard size button and a decapping pin retainer, so you can run it with the button for conventional sizing or pull the button entirely if you sort or turn your necks for uniformity. There's even a trick worth knowing: pull the bushing and all the internal parts and the Type S Full Die doubles as a body die, sizing the case body and bumping the shoulder without touching the neck.
One thing to plan for up front is that this die comes without bushings. Redding sells them separately in steel and titanium nitride, and you'll want to measure a loaded round's neck diameter and subtract a couple thousandths to figure out your starting bushing. The recommended bushing range for the 224 Valkyrie runs from about .246 to .254, so grab the size that matches your brass and bullet combo. Optional carbide and tapered size buttons are also offered if you want to fine-tune neck sizing even further.
No, this die ships without bushings. Redding sells the neck sizing bushings separately in steel and titanium nitride, available in .001-inch increments. For the 224 Valkyrie, plan on a bushing somewhere in the .246 to .254 range depending on your brass and bullet.
Measure the neck diameter of a loaded round, then subtract one to three thousandths to set your neck tension. That number is your starting bushing. Many reloaders keep a couple of bushings on hand so they can fine-tune tension for accuracy or brass life.
Yes. Remove the bushing and all the internal parts and the die will size the case body and bump the shoulder without touching the neck. That makes it a versatile tool to have on the bench if you want body-only sizing for neck-sized brass.
A standard FL die sizes the neck to one fixed diameter, while this Type S die uses an interchangeable bushing so you control exactly how much neck tension you get. The bushing also self-centers on the case neck, which improves concentricity and produces straighter ammo. It's the choice for reloaders chasing precision with the 224 Valkyrie.
