Redding 7mm Carbide Size Button Kits$39.58
Availability: In Stock
The Redding Carbide Size Button Kit for 6.5mm is a targeted upgrade for reloaders who want to streamline their neck sizing process without the mess of case lube. If you're already running Redding Standard or Type S dies, swapping in a carbide button transforms the inside neck sizing step—the self-centering design means less fiddling, smoother operation, and cleaner brass in and out of the press.
Carbide buttons have long been prized by precision reloaders because they eliminate the need for lubrication during the sizing stroke. For 6.5mm cartridges—whether you're loading 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, or another bottleneck round in that family—the frictionless operation of carbide reduces wear on both your brass and your press. The button itself floats freely on the decapping rod, allowing it to find its own center within the case neck. That self-aligning feature is what keeps your cases concentric and your sizing repeatable.
This kit comes complete with everything you need to make the swap: the carbide button, a retainer to hold it in place, and a spare decapping pin in case you ever need a replacement. It's a drop-in upgrade for your existing Redding dies—no special tools or machine work required. Keep in mind that the decapping rod itself is not included; you'll use the one already in your die.
| Cartridge | 6.5mm bottleneck cartridges |
| Compatible Die Types | Redding Standard and Type S neck and full-length sizing dies |
| Kit Contents | Carbide button, retainer, spare decapping pin |

Yes, it's designed as a direct upgrade for Redding Standard and Type S dies used for neck sizing or full-length sizing. It is not intended for use with dies from other manufacturers.
No. Carbide's low-friction properties allow you to size cases without lubrication, which keeps your brass cleaner and speeds up the reloading process.
The kit includes the carbide button, a retainer, and a spare decapping pin. You'll use the decapping rod that's already in your die; the rod itself is not included in this kit.
The button's free-floating design allows it to self-center within the case neck as it sizes, which promotes consistent, concentric sizing without you having to adjust or fiddle with alignment.
