Redding Type S Bushing Die Scarcity

[JW74]

Has anyone else been noticing how hard it is to find Redding Type S Full Length Bushing Dies lately? I have been looking for one for my 280 AI and can't find one anywhere.

Is it supply chain issues or something else perhaps?

Have you checked Precision Reloading? They have a couple 280AI dies in stock.

I did, unfortunately all of the full length type s bushing dies are out of stock.

Yup ! They have the neck die and a full-length button in stock.
I remember Redding stuff has been hard to find since the coof started, I waited awhile for my Redding stuff last year. I get everything from Precision and just pick it up if it is a large order containing Haz-Mat.

I saw the neck bushing die but am looking for the FL type S bushing die specifically. Thanks for the heads up on that though! I'll keep checking back with them and hopefully the type s dies are back in stock soon.

Well good luck! I need a couple sets too, I may go down next week and get on the list.

I wish I was a little closer myself, I'm over in CO.

Have a look at Accurate Arms and Ammo, they are showing 1 in stock. Redding part no 36428.

Not far! Just a hop skip and a jump!

Have you checked eBay?
Don't know if it's exactly what you are lookin' for, but I found this one this morning (12/26)? Says its new.

36428 REDDING TYPE-S MATCH BUSHING FULL DIE SET - 280 AI ACKLEY IMP- NEW | eBay

The new Type S - Full Length Resizing/Bushing Die accomplishes this task with the precision you would expect from Redding. Note: By removing the bushing and all internal parts, the Type-S full bushing die may also be used as a body die.

Thanks sir! I was looking for just the sizing die as I already have a seater but may have to go with both. I appreciate the link!

Thank you! I had saw that one yesterday in my search but was hoping to buy just the sizing die only if I can. Looks like I may have to buy the set to get what I need and that's ok too. Thanks again for the link!

They're produced in the communist state of NY during a pandemic. Who knows when or if they are permitted to work. Im surprised Redding hasn't left the state by now as Remington did.
