Description
If you handload 308 Winchester and want a seating die that just works trip after trip, the Redding 92155 is a staple on reloading benches for good reason. This is the final step in your loading process, pushing the bullet into the sized case to your chosen depth with the consistency that matters when you care about accuracy. It also covers 307 Winchester, so folks running both calibers get double duty out of one die.
What the Redding 92155 Brings to the Bench
This standard seating die comes with a bullet guide that helps keep things lined up as the bullet enters, a built-in crimping ring, and the correct seating plug matched to the .308 bullet profile. The body is machined from high quality alloy and then hand polished, which is a big part of why Redding dies have the reputation they do for smooth operation and reliable, repeatable performance. It is made in the USA.
Fitment and Setup for the 308 Winchester Seater Die
The die uses standard 7/8 x 14 threads, so it threads right into most popular single stage and turret presses on the market. Keep in mind this is a seater die sold on its own and does not come with a shellholder. For 308 Winchester, Redding spec calls for a number 1 shellholder, so grab one if you are not already set up for the cartridge. If you ever want finer seating depth control down the road, the die accepts an add-on bullet seating micrometer that replaces the standard seat plug.
A Dependable Choice for 308 Handloaders
Whether you are loading hunting rounds or working up a target load, this die gives you clean, consistent bullet seating without a lot of fuss. It is the kind of tool that earns a permanent spot in your die box and keeps performing load after load.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Redding 92155 seater die come with a shellholder?
No, this is the seating die only and a shellholder is not included. For 308 Winchester, Redding specifies a number 1 shellholder. You will need to add one if you do not already have it in your setup.
Will this 308 Winchester seater die fit my press?
Yes, it uses the industry standard 7/8 x 14 thread, which fits the vast majority of single stage and turret presses out there. If your press takes common dies, this one will thread right in.
What is the difference between this standard seating die and a Redding Competition seating die?
The standard 92155 uses a conventional threaded seat plug and a bullet guide to align the bullet. The Competition seating die adds a spring-loaded floating sleeve and a micrometer top for extra concentricity and dial-in seating depth adjustments. For most handloaders the standard die does a great job, and you can always add a micrometer top later if you want finer control.
Can I use the Redding 92155 to crimp my 308 loads?
It has a built-in crimping ring, so light crimping is possible when the die is adjusted for it. That said, most precision 308 reloaders seat and crimp as separate steps or skip crimping altogether, relying on neck tension for a consistent hold.
