Redding 308 Winchester Small Base Bushing Full Length Type S Die

The Redding 308 Winchester Small Base Bushing Full Length Type S Die gives precision rifle reloaders the ability to resize cases with exacting control over neck dimensions in a single operation. Built around Redding's reputation for match-grade reloading tooling, this full length sizing die combines the control of a bushing-style system with the capability to resize the entire cartridge body—making it ideal for shooters who demand consistency in their ammunition but don't want to run multiple dies or compromise on neck concentricity.

What sets the Type S apart is its interchangeable bushing design, which self-centers on the case neck to enhance concentricity without the guesswork of standard full length dies. If you're already running other Redding bushing-style neck dies, these bushings are compatible across your die collection, so you're not locked into a single setup. The adjustable decapping rod gives you precise control: you can size only part of the neck length if your loads or brass condition calls for it, or go full-length when starting fresh cases. That flexibility matters when you're chasing tight groups or working with mixed brass in a precision rifle application.

Each die ships with both a standard size button and a decapping pin retainer, so you have options right out of the box. And if you ever need to convert this to a body die only—removing the bushing and internal parts entirely—the Type S design allows it. That versatility means your investment covers more than one reloading scenario without buying additional equipment. Whether you're preparing match ammunition, hunting loads, or brass for a competition rifle, this die delivers the small base chamber dimensions and neck control that 308 Winchester accuracy demands.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The Type S die uses the same interchangeable bushing system found in Redding bushing-style neck sizing dies, so bushings can be swapped across compatible Redding equipment in your reloading setup.

Can I use this die to size only part of the case neck?

Yes. The adjustable decapping rod allows you to control the bushing position, giving you the option to resize only part of the neck length when your ammunition requirements call for it.

What's included with the die?

The die comes supplied with a standard size button and a decapping pin retainer, providing the components you need for immediate use in your reloading press.

Can this die be used as a body die?
