Redding Series C Seating Die For Straight Wall Cases .450 Bushmaster DEMO/USED$55.01
Availability: In Stock
The Redding Series C seating die for straight wall cases .450 Bushmaster is built for reloaders who demand consistent bullet seating and long-term case life. Unlike conventional seating dies that push the bullet down through the entire case length, this die uses a separate bottom punch that seats the case body to the shoulder—a proven approach favored by precision rifle builders and benchrest shooters who refuse to compromise on repeatability. If you're loading for accuracy-critical applications or working with military brass, this die's design minimizes case neck wear and lets you extend case life across multiple reload cycles.
The Series C design keeps both the pilot and seating stem on the same side of the case neck, which means smoother, more concentric cycling through your press. Less friction during the stroke translates to better control and the ability to seat bullets right to the limit of the case neck rather than forcing them through the full case body. That precision matters whether you're prepping ammo for a .450 Bushmaster hunting rifle, a specialized straight wall lever gun, or any other application where case durability and bullet runout directly affect downrange performance.
When a crimp is needed, the expander ball simply moves to the rear position and the bullet backs out through the case mouth—no complex adjustments or die swaps required. This versatility and the die's gentle approach to case necks make it a natural companion to other Redding dies in a progressive or single-stage setup. If you're serious about .450 Bushmaster reloading and want a die that respects your brass, the Redding Series C seating die delivers the engineering and precision you expect from Redding.

The Series C uses a separate bottom punch that seats the case body to the shoulder rather than pushing the bullet down the entire case length. This design reduces case neck wear and allows bullets to be seated right to the case neck limit, making it ideal for precision reloading and extending case life across multiple loading cycles.
Yes. The expander ball in the Series C die moves to the rear position when a crimp is needed, and the bullet backs out through the case mouth. You don't need a separate crimping die or tool to accomplish this.
The Series C die is designed to cycle smoothly and concentrically through standard press operations. It works well in setups paired with other Redding dies, though you should verify compatibility with your specific press.
Less wear on the case neck means your brass lasts longer and maintains its structural integrity across multiple reloading cycles. The Series C's shoulder-seating method accomplishes this by avoiding unnecessary friction and force through the case neck during the seating stroke.
