L.E. Wilson Bushing Type Full Length Sizing Die 6 Gt
The L.E. Wilson Bushing Type Full Length Sizing Die for 6 GT gives precision reloaders a neck-control approach that's become a favorite among shooters who demand accuracy. This bushing-style die sizes your case neck to a consistent tension you choose while simultaneously sizing the case body and shoulder—all in one stroke on your standard reloading press. The intelligent design leaves the bottom 3/16" of the neck unsized, a technique many experienced hand loaders prefer because it reduces neck stress and improves concentricity compared to sizing the entire neck.
Built from hardened, heat-treated steel to L.E. Wilson's exacting standards—harder than Grade 8 bolts—this die is engineered for long-term reliability and repeatability. The adjustable depth decapping rod lets you fine-tune how far the decapping punch travels, and you'll get an extra punch in the box. Stainless steel components resist corrosion and wear, keeping your die in top shape for years of reloading. The included L.E. Wilson lock nut (.225" thick, .270" tall, 1.250" OD) secures everything firmly in your press.
Note that this die does not include an expander, and the neck bushing is sold separately—L.E. Wilson bushings are the natural choice, though Redding bushings also fit. If you're moving up to bushing-die reloading or you already trust L.E. Wilson quality, this full-length die gives you the control and precision that translate to tighter groups at the range and in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
What press will this die fit?
The L.E. Wilson Bushing Type Full Length Sizing Die is designed for standard reloading presses with 7/8"-14 threads, which covers most common single-stage and progressive press models.
Do I need to buy a neck bushing separately?
Yes, the neck bushing is sold separately. L.E. Wilson neck bushings are the recommended choice, but Redding bushings will also fit this die.
Why does this die leave 3/16" of the neck unsized?
Leaving the bottom portion of the neck unsized reduces neck tension stress and improves case concentricity, a practice many precision reloaders adopt to enhance accuracy and reduce case work-hardening.
What comes in the box?
The die includes an adjustable depth decapping rod, an extra decapping punch, and an L.E. Wilson lock nut. The neck bushing and expander are purchased separately.
