Lee Precision 6.5Mm Prc Rifle Precision Micrometer Bullet Seating Die
The Lee Precision 6.5mm PRC Rifle Precision Micrometer Bullet Seating Die brings bench-grade precision to handloading without the bench-grade price tag. Built for reloaders who demand consistent, repeatable seating depth across their 6.5mm PRC rounds, this die uses a micrometer-style adjustment system that reads in thousandths of an inch—just like a precision depth gauge. Whether you're chasing tight groups at the range or building ammunition for hunting, dead-length seating ensures every cartridge sits at the exact same depth, shot after shot.
The heart of this die is its floating bullet guide, which holds the case and bullet in perfect vertical alignment while you seat. Radial clearance in the guide lets both parts self-center, reducing bullet runout and the accuracy-killing tilting that can happen with rigid setups. The seating stem itself is machined and burnished smooth, so it seats bullets cleanly without marking or deforming the jacket—critical when you're working with expensive match-grade projectiles or trying to preserve bullet integrity for reuse.
A feature unique to Lee: the floating guide is reversible. Unthread it and flip it back in, and you can seat and crimp in a single stroke if your workflow calls for it. The micrometer body and thimble are laser-engraved for easy reading even in poor light. If precision ammunition matters to you but your budget doesn't stretch to premium brands, this die proves you don't have to compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this die work for both seating and crimping?
The floating guide is reversible. In standard orientation, it seats bullets. When you unthread and reinstall it, it allows you to seat and crimp in a single pull, which is an exclusive feature to Lee's precision seating dies.
What makes the floating bullet guide different?
The floating guide has radial clearance around the bullet, so the case and guide align themselves naturally as you lower the ram. This self-centering action reduces bullet runout compared to rigid guides, which can let bullets tilt if the case isn't perfectly centered by hand.
Does the micrometer adjustment work smoothly?
Yes. The die features smooth, accurate adjustment with infinitely variable depth control. The micrometer thimble is laser-engraved in divisions of one thousandth of an inch, making it easy to dial in your exact seating depth and return to it consistently.
Will this die damage premium or soft-pointed bullets?
The seating stem is machined and burnished to a smooth finish, designed to seat nearly any bullet point style without marking or deforming the jacket.
