The Redding Type S Elite Die Set for .30-06 Springfield is a three-die reloading system built around customer demand for precision neck control and consistency. Whether you're fine-tuning loads for a bolt-action hunting rifle or dialing in ammunition for the range, this set gives you the control that separates good groups from great ones. It combines a Type S bushing full sizing die, a Type S bushing neck sizing die, and Redding's respected Competition Seating Die—all the tools you need to produce uniform, accurate cartridges.
The heart of the Type S Elite system is the interchangeable bushing design. These hardened steel bushings (with optional titanium nitride coating for reduced friction) let you dial in neck tension in 0.001" increments, giving you precise control without over-working brass. The bushings float freely to self-center on the case neck, which means less operator error and more consistent sizing across your batch. For handloaders who've struggled with uneven neck tension or wanted finer control than standard dies allow, this is the upgrade that delivers.
Redding engineered the Type S Elite in response to what reloaders were actually asking for—better consistency, tighter tolerances, and the ability to tailor loads to specific brass and rifles. The Competition Seating Die ensures bullet seating depth stays repeatable and true. If you're working with quality brass and aiming for sub-minute-of-angle ammunition, this die set is built for that mission.
| Product | Redding Type S Elite Die Set |
| Caliber | .30-06 Springfield |
| Die Configuration | 3-piece set (Full Sizing Die, Neck Sizing Die, Competition Seating Die) |
| Sizing Method | Type S interchangeable bushing system |
| Bushing Material | Hardened steel (TIN coating optional) |
| Neck Tension Control | 0.001" increments |
The set includes three dies: a Type S bushing full sizing die, a Type S bushing neck sizing die, and a Competition Seating Die. You'll also receive interchangeable bushings to adjust neck tension.
The Type S dies use hardened steel bushings that slide into the die body. These bushings control the inside diameter of the case neck, letting you set tension in 0.001" increments. The bushings float freely, which means they self-center on each case neck for consistent sizing without operator-induced variation.
Yes. By swapping out different bushing sizes, you can adjust neck tension to suit your brass, primers, and bullets. This flexibility is one of the main advantages of the Type S system—you're not locked into one neck tension like you would be with a fixed sizing die.
Titanium nitride coating reduces friction during the sizing stroke, which can lower required press force and extend bushing life. It's optional, but beneficial if you're processing large volumes of brass or prefer smoother operation.
