Redding Series A Taper Crimp Die for Straight Wall Cases .45 ACP$34.91
Availability: In Stock
If you reload 9mm Luger ammunition and want a crimp that's precise, consistent, and gentler on brass than conventional roll crimping, the Redding Series A Taper Crimp Die for Straight Wall Cases is built for exactly that job. Taper crimping is the preferred method for straight-wall pistol cartridges where headspace is controlled by the case mouth—it applies gradual, uniform pressure that seats the bullet securely without compressing the case length, so your rounds stay within spec and feed reliably through semi-automatic pistols.
Redding's Series A dies are machined from steel for durability through thousands of reloading cycles. The taper crimp geometry ensures a consistent result from round to round, which translates to more uniform seating and better overall cartridge quality. Whether you're a precision-focused handloader or just tired of unpredictable roll crimp results, this die delivers the control you're after.
9mm Luger is the most common pistol cartridge in America, so if you're rolling your own for range sessions, training, or competitive shooting, a dedicated taper crimp die tailored to its straight-wall design makes the process faster and more reliable than adapting a generic setup.
Taper crimping applies gradual, even pressure as it moves down the case mouth, which is ideal for straight-wall pistol cartridges like 9mm Luger where headspace is controlled by the case mouth. Roll crimping, by contrast, can be harsher and less uniform. A taper crimp holds the bullet securely without changing the overall case length, keeping your rounds in spec.
The Redding Series A die is a standard reloading die that works with presses that accept standard die threads. Confirm your press accepts standard dies before ordering; if you're unsure, check your press manual or contact us.
This die is designed specifically for 9mm Luger straight-wall cases. Do not use it for other calibers or cartridge types—always match your die to your cartridge.
You'll need a reloading press, shell holder, reloading powder, primers, bullets, and a scale or powder measure. The die itself handles only the crimp station of the reloading process.
