FULL LENGTH SIZING DIE FOR 6 X 47 LAPUA

If you're hand-loading precision rifle ammunition in 6x47 Lapua, you need a full length sizing die that keeps your cases running true. The Forster Full Length Sizing Die for 6x47 Lapua is built for reloaders who demand concentricity and consistency, shot after shot. Forster has been manufacturing reloading dies to exacting standards for decades, and this die reflects that reputation: precision-machined steel that supports your cases through the sizing process without compromise.

The key to Forster's approach is their E-Z Out Expander button, positioned higher in the neck than competing designs. That extra support in the neck area keeps your case body and neck axis aligned while you withdraw the sized case from the die—critical for maintaining the concentric ammunition that long-range and competition shooters depend on. Every Forster die is hand-polished before and after heat-treat, then fitted with their Cross Bolt Die Locking Ring, which secures both ends of the split ring instead of relying on a threaded screw into the die itself. That design choice eliminates the risk of stripping die threads and provides rock-solid die retention in your press.

Whether you're developing loads for a precision rifle match, building ammunition for a custom 6x47 Lapua rifle, or running a steady production schedule, this full length sizing die gives you the mechanical advantage of quality engineering. If you're serious about reloading 6x47 Lapua, Forster dies are the standard that other manufacturers are measured against.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a full length sizing die and why do I need one?

A full length sizing die resizes the entire case—body, shoulder, and neck—back to factory dimensions. This is essential for ammunition that will be fired in different firearms of the same caliber, or for maintaining consistency across large reloading batches. Full length sizing ensures reliable feeding and chamber fit.

What makes the E-Z Out Expander button different from standard expander designs?

Forster's E-Z Out Expander is positioned higher in the neck area than most competitors' designs. This higher placement provides additional support to the case neck during the expansion stroke, helping to keep the neck concentric with the case body as you withdraw the case from the die.

Why does Forster use a Cross Bolt Die Locking Ring instead of a threaded lock screw?

The Cross Bolt Locking Ring tightens both ends of the split ring simultaneously, rather than applying force through a screw threaded into the die itself. This approach prevents the risk of stripping the die's threads and provides more secure, consistent die retention in your reloading press.

Is this die compatible with all reloading presses?

Forster full length sizing dies are manufactured to standard 7/8-14 threads, which fit all single-stage and most progressive reloading presses. Confirm your press's die thread specification before ordering.
