The Redding Premium Handgun Expander Die is designed with a series of unique processes that set it apart from other dies. The process begins with a radius on the base that eases the die's entry into the case mouth, ensuring smooth and consistent operation. The next step involves a parallel expander section that expands and aligns the case internally, creating a perfect bearing surface for the bullet during seating. This internal expansion contributes to more uniform bullet pull and consistent start pressure. Following that, a small step is introduced to align the bullet with the centerline of the cartridge case, ensuring it is positioned correctly for accurate contact with the seating micrometer. This step improves the uniformity of the seating process. Finally, the die includes a flare at the case mouth to prevent lead shaving when using cast bullets, ensuring a smoother, more precise seating process.
