Forster Products 6 Creedmoor Bushing Bump Neck Die

The Forster Products 6 Creedmoor Bushing Bump Neck Die is a precision reloading die built for shooters who want control over case neck sizing without affecting case body dimensions. This hand-polished die uses a bushing system to manage headspace length independently—a feature that sets it apart from traditional full-length or standard neck dies. If you're loading 6 Creedmoor ammunition and need to maintain consistent neck tension while preserving case longevity, this die delivers the repeatability that long-range and precision target shooters demand.

The bushing bump neck die system works by letting your choice of bushing determine the internal neck diameter; the die itself has no expander ball. You simply select a bushing sized approximately .002 inch smaller than your loaded round's neck diameter. Since bushings are available in .001 inch increments, you can dial in your preferred neck clearance with precision. This approach eliminates the guesswork and allows you to tailor sizing to your specific ammunition and rifle setup.

One critical note: this Forster die is designed exclusively for Forster bushings. It is not compatible with Redding or Wilson bushing systems, so confirm your bushing source before ordering. Bushings must be purchased separately and are not included with the die. This compatibility requirement ensures you get the exact fit and performance Forster engineered into the system.

Whether you're a dedicated handloader chasing smaller groups or someone managing case life across multiple shooting seasons, the bushing bump neck die gives you the precision adjustment that factory and standard dies simply cannot match. It's a workhorse for serious 6 Creedmoor reloaders.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bushings work with this Forster 6 Creedmoor neck die?

Only Forster bushings are compatible with this die. It will not work with Redding or Wilson bushing systems. Bushings must be purchased separately and are available in .001 inch increments.

How do I choose the right bushing size?

Select a bushing approximately .002 inch smaller than your loaded round measures at the case neck. Since bushings come in .001 inch increments, you can fine-tune the fit to your ammunition and rifle.

Is an expander ball included with this die?

No. The die includes a decapping assembly without an expander ball. The bushing you select determines the internal neck diameter, eliminating the need for an expander.

What's the advantage of a bushing bump neck die over a standard neck die?

A bushing bump neck die sizes only the case neck and adjusts headspace length without affecting the case body. This preserves case dimensions across multiple reloading cycles and allows precise control over neck clearance through bushing selection.
