Product Description
Competition Seating Die (STD) Standard Profile Stem
55017
NEW!
For: 17 Caliber Long, 17 Remington
The Standard Profile Seating Stem is provided with Competition Seating Dies for bottleneck cases and is designed to accommodate most traditional bullet ogive shapes.
Instructions:
1. Disassemble the die. Removing the micrometer will allow the die’s internal parts to be removed from the threaded die body.
2. Hold the internal sleeve vertically in your hand, oriented so that the bullet alignment bore is facing upwards.
3. Remove the seating stem from the bullet alignment bore.
4. Place your thumb over the chamber end of the interval sleeve so that the hole is completely covered, creating an airtight seal.
5. Partially insert the seating stem into the bullet alignment bore, (1/8” to 3/16”) is sufficient.
6. Using your free hand, gently tap the top of the seating stem with your finger. Since the bullet alignment bore and seating stem are so closely matched, the air within the internal sleeve does not escape; it is compressed. Watch as the seating stem “jumps” as the compression reacts upon the seating stem.
7. Now, repeat the experiment using a standard jacketed bullet in place of the seating stem. You will see the same results. You have just demonstrated that the seating stem and the bullet are so closely matched that they will float on a column of air!
The Redding Competition Seating Die has quickly established itself as the “state of the art” in straight line bullet seaters and overcome the concentricity problems inherent in all other seating dies of this type.
At first glance, you will note that its appearance and construction differs greatly from that of a Standard Seating Die.
Through examination and use, you will understand and appreciate the amount of engineering that was required to offer you the finest precision Bullet Seating Die on the market.
