The Redding Big Boss Pro-Pack Without Dies is a comprehensive reloading starter system built around the Big Boss Single-Stage Press—one of the most versatile workhorses in the handloading world. If you're stepping into magnum cartridge reloading or upgrading from basic equipment, this kit gives you nearly everything required to begin, minus the dies (which you'll choose based on your specific calibers). It's the kind of foundational setup that grows with you: solid, no-nonsense, and built to last decades of regular use.
The centerpiece is Redding's cast-iron Big Boss press, a proven single-stage design with an offset frame-and-ball handle engineered for smooth, ergonomic operation during the repetitive work of case preparation and bullet seating. The heavy-duty construction means minimal flex and consistent results, whether you're processing a few rounds for load testing or batches for a season of hunting. Cast iron also means it'll stay bolted to your bench—this isn't a press you'll need to upgrade in a year or two.
Beyond the press itself, the kit includes a Model 2 powder scale for precise charge weights, a powder trickler for fine adjustment, a deburring tool for case mouth prep, a Model 18 case prep kit to handle flashhole uniformity and other finishing work, a powder funnel for safe powder handling, and a reloading manual packed with load data. You're missing only the dies specific to your caliber—a deliberate choice that lets you build the exact kit you need without paying for caliber-specific tooling you won't use.
This is equipment aimed at serious reloaders who want reliability and range capability without paying for bells and whistles. The Big Boss platform is known for consistency across magnum and standard cartridges alike, making it a practical choice whether you're preparing brass for precision rifle work, hunting loads, or volume shooting at the range.
| Brand | Redding |
| Press Type | Single-Stage |
| Frame Material | Cast Iron |
| Included Components | Big Boss Press, Model 2 Powder Scale, Powder Trickler, Deburring Tool, Model 18 Case Prep Kit, Powder Funnel, Reloading Manual |
| Dies | Not Included |
The Big Boss press itself is compatible with a wide range of calibers—both magnum and standard—but compatibility depends on the dies you purchase separately. Choose dies matched to your specific cartridge, whether that's .308 Winchester, .300 Win Mag, 6.5 Creedmoor, .223 Remington, or countless others.
Yes. This kit does not include case preparation dies. You'll need to purchase dies suited to the caliber you plan to reload. Dies are available from Redding and other manufacturers and allow the press to size, prime, and seat bullets for your chosen rounds.
This is a solid entry-level to intermediate reloading system. It includes most of the core tools you'll need—scale, press, case prep equipment, and manual—making it a practical starting point. Beginners should understand that reloading requires attention to detail and safety, and the manual and other resources will help build competency.
The Model 18 case prep kit is included in this package and addresses case finishing work, including flashhole uniformity. The exact tools in the kit prepare brass for consistent, reliable reloading.
