The RCBS 28701 Full-Length 2-Die Set for 6.5mm/284 Win is built for shooters who demand consistency and precision in their handloads. This two-die set handles the complete reloading cycle for bottleneck cases, bringing fired brass back to SAAMI minimum dimensions while preparing it for a fresh bullet and crimp. Whether you're working up loads for a new 6.5/284 Win rifle or maintaining a proven load, this die set gives you the control and repeatability that separates dialed-in ammunition from guesswork.
The full-length sizer die is the workhorse here. It sizes the case body, de-primes the fired primer, and expands the neck to accept your bullet—all while holding headspace to minimum tolerances so you're not stretching or shortening cases unnecessarily. The die features vents to prevent case damage from trapped air and excess sizing lubricant, a detail that matters when you're running volume through the press. The matching seater die includes a built-in roll crimper, so you're securing the bullet and setting it to depth in one stroke, which streamlines your loading sequence and keeps runout consistent.
Standard 7/8"-14 threads make this die set compatible with any RCBS or RCBS-compatible reloading press. You'll get both dies packed in the recognizable green RCBS die box—a quality touch that reflects the brand's decades in the reloading business. If you're serious about 6.5/284 Win ammo, this is a straightforward, no-nonsense choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this die set work with my RCBS press?
Yes. The RCBS 28701 uses standard 7/8"-14 threads, which are compatible with all RCBS reloading presses and any third-party press that accepts standard dies. If you're using a non-standard or specialty press, verify that it accepts 7/8"-14 dies before ordering.
What caliber is this die set for?
This set is specifically designed for 6.5mm/284 Win (also written as 6.5/284 Win). Do not use this die set for any other cartridge. Die sets are caliber-specific, and using the wrong dies can damage your press and create safety hazards.
Is the seater die set up for any particular bullet weight or type?
The seater die is a standard design for 6.5mm/.264" bullets. Exact seating and crimping performance will depend on your specific bullet profile and your load data. RCBS die sets are engineered to work across the range of 6.5mm projectiles, but you should always reference your reloading manual for the ammunition you're assembling.
What's included in the box?
The RCBS 28701 ships with two dies: a Full-Length Sizing Die (with expander-decapping unit) and a Bullet Seating Die (with built-in roll crimper). Both dies come in the green RCBS die box. You'll need a separate reloading press, shell holder, and other standard reloading components to use these dies.
