If you're running a progressive press and loading .45 ACP or .45 GAP, the Redding Adjustable Taper Crimp Die saves you the frustration of pulling the die every time you need to tweak your crimp. A knurled micrometer-style adjustment knob on top lets you dial in crimp depth without breaking down your setup—a real time-saver for high-volume reloading. The hardened steel internal sleeve handles the actual crimp work, and thanks to Redding's smart double-ended design, you flip it to load the second cartridge in the pair without any die swaps.
Taper crimp dies are essential for pistol rounds that feed semi-auto firearms. The proper crimp holds the bullet securely, ensures consistent feeding, and helps you maintain case neck tension across your entire batch. With the micrometer adjustment offering approximately ±.100" of travel after initial setup, you get the fine control you need to dial in the exact crimp your ammo demands—no guessing, no backing off and starting over.
Redding's adjustable taper crimpers are built for reloaders who want precision without the constant back-and-forth. Whether you're loading for competition, duty carry, or high-round-count practice, this die lets you work efficiently and dial in the consistency that keeps your ammunition feeding reliably.
