Redding Reloading Equipment
The Redding 338 Caliber Carbide Sizing Button is a precision upgrade for reloaders looking to streamline their case neck sizing process. If you're running a Redding Standard or Type S die and want to eliminate the need for sizing lubricant while improving consistency, this carbide button swap does exactly that. The self-centering design floats freely on the decapping rod, which means it naturally aligns with your case neck and delivers smooth, friction-free sizing without the mess and variables that come with traditional lubrication methods.
This isn't just a quality-of-life upgrade—it's a practical solution for high-volume reloaders and precision shooters who demand uniform case prep. Whether you're working up loads for a 338 rifle or running production batches, carbide sizing reduces downtime spent cleaning lube residue off your brass and keeps your die working at peak efficiency. The floating button design is the key: it self-corrects as your brass enters the die, so you get consistent neck tension shot after shot without the fiddling.
The kit arrives complete with the carbide button itself, a retainer to hold it in place, and a spare decapping pin—everything you need to make the swap on your existing Redding dies. Note that the decapping rod itself is not included; this is a direct replacement button for dies you already own. Installation is straightforward, and once it's in, you'll notice the difference immediately in ease of operation and case quality.
| Caliber | .338 |
| Compatibility | Redding Standard and Type S dies (neck and full-length) |
| Material | Carbide |
| Included Components | Carbide sizing button, retainer, spare decapping pin |
| Decapping Rod | Not included |
Yes, this sizing button is designed for Redding Standard and Type S dies in both neck-sizing and full-length configurations. If you're using other die brands or models, it is not compatible. Confirm you have a Redding Standard or Type S die before ordering.
No. The carbide material allows smooth, friction-free sizing without lubrication. This eliminates cleanup and variability from lube residue, making your reloading process faster and cleaner.
The kit includes the carbide sizing button, a retainer to secure it, and a spare decapping pin. The decapping rod itself is not included; you'll use the one already in your die.
The carbide button floats freely on the decapping rod rather than being fixed rigidly. As your case enters the die, the button naturally aligns itself with the case neck, ensuring consistent centering and even sizing pressure with every stroke.
