Redding Competition Rifle Seating Die, .300 PRC

The Redding Competition Rifle Seating Die, .300 PRC for .300 PRC (Redding part no. 55776) is a straight-line seater built to solve the concentricity problems common to conventional seating dies. The case and bullet are fully supported and aligned in a close-fitting sleeve before seating even starts, and the seating stem itself is precision-ground to match the bullet’s exact diameter, so there’s no play for the bullet to wander off-axis. It’s built for the .300 PRC handloader chasing single-digit runout at the bench, not a general-purpose seater. Not rated for compressed loads. Part of the Redding line of reloading dies.

Key Specifications

• The seating stem is precision-ground to match bullet diameter exactly, removing the play that lets ordinary seating stems tip a bullet off-axis.
• The case and bullet are fully supported in a close-fitting alignment sleeve before the seating stroke begins, which is what drives down runout versus a standard seater.
• A micrometer calibrated in .001 inch increments gives precise, infinitely adjustable seating-depth control with no clicks to round the setting off.
• The micrometer has a settable reference feature, so a proven seating depth for this rifle can be dialed back in without re-measuring from zero.
• The die is machined specifically for .300 PRC brass and bullet diameter, not a universal fit across calibers.
• Redding rates the die not for use with compressed loads, a real limitation to know before pairing it with a compressed-charge recipe.

Is this seater specific to .300 PRC? Yes, the seating stem and body are machined for .300 PRC bullet diameter and case dimensions, not a multi-caliber fit.
