Forster Products 6Mm Cm Bushing Full Length Die Kit
$134.73
The Forster Products 6mm CM Bushing Full Length Die Kit gives you the control serious reloaders need to produce consistent, accurate ammunition while extending brass life. This full-length sizing die system uses interchangeable bushings to let you dial in exactly how much neck tension your reloads require—a level of precision that separates handloaders who chase tight groups from those settling for average results. Whether you're working up loads for a new rifle or refining loads you've shot for years, this kit gives you the flexibility to optimize your brass and bullets without needless work-hardening.
The 6mm CM (Creedmoor) has become a favorite among long-range hunters and target shooters who want the ballistics of a 6mm cartridge in a compact package. A proper bushing die sizes your case neck to grip your new bullet with just the right amount of tension—enough for a solid hold, not so much that repeated sizing cycles fatigue the brass. Meanwhile, the die's full-length sizing action brings the body and shoulder down to SAAMI spec, ensuring your rounds chamber reliably and consistently.
Three bushings are included with this kit, giving you options to match different bullet sizes and find the neck tension that works best for your specific rifle and load. Rather than guessing with a standard expander or settling for one fixed sizing option, you're working with the actual dimensions your ammunition needs. That precision shows up downrange in tighter groups and in your wallet through longer case life before needing to retire your brass.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the purpose of multiple bushings in a 6mm CM bushing die kit?
The three bushings included allow you to select the inside diameter that best matches your specific bullets and desired neck tension. Different bullet manufacturers and lots may vary slightly, and different reloading philosophies call for different amounts of grip—the bushings let you find what works for your setup without forcing a one-size-fits-all approach.
How does a bushing die improve case life compared to standard full-length dies?
A bushing die sizes the neck to a precise diameter that grips your bullet without over-working the brass. Standard expander buttons can cause unnecessary stress and hardening. By controlling neck tension through the bushing rather than relying on an expander, you reduce fatigue to the case neck and extend the number of times you can safely reload that brass.
Is the Forster 6mm CM bushing die suitable for precision long-range reloading?
Yes. The ability to precisely control neck tension is highly valued in precision handloading for both target and hunting applications. Many long-range shooters prefer bushing dies for the consistency and control they provide when developing loads for accuracy-demanding cartridges like the 6mm Creedmoor.
What's included in this kit?
The kit includes the full-length bushing sizing die for 6mm CM and three interchangeable bushings. You'll need to source a reloading press, shell holder, and other standard reloading components separately.
