Rcbs Matchmaster Competition Full-Length Bushing Die Set 6X47Mm Lapua
$192.74
The RCBS Matchmaster Competition Full-Length Bushing Die Set for 6x47mm Lapua is purpose-built for precision rifle shooters who demand consistency in every round. This full-length bushing die system lets you fine-tune neck sizing to match your specific brass and chamber, a critical advantage for competition shooters and long-range hunters who depend on tight tolerances and repeatable performance.
Bushing dies give you control that standard dies can't match. By sizing only the neck of your brass rather than the entire shoulder and body, you preserve case dimensions and brass life—especially important when you're working with premium brass like 6x47mm Lapua. This approach keeps your round-to-round consistency sharp, which translates to tighter groups and more predictable ballistics downrange.
Setting up your bushing die properly starts with measuring the outside neck diameter (OD) of a loaded round, then selecting a bushing that's .002" to .003" smaller than that measurement. This accounts for natural brass spring-back and ensures your neck fit is snug without excessive tension. RCBS Matchmaster dies are engineered for the precision requirements of competition reloading, making them a trusted choice for serious shooters who understand that ammunition quality directly impacts accuracy.
If you're stepping up from standard dies to a bushing system, or you're already running a 6x47mm Lapua for F-Class, PRS, or benchrest competition, this die set will reward your attention to detail with the kind of consistency that wins matches.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right bushing size for my 6x47mm Lapua?
Measure the outside neck diameter (OD) of one of your loaded cartridges, then subtract .002" to .003" to account for brass spring-back. That measurement tells you which bushing size to order. This small clearance ensures a snug fit without excessive sizing tension.
What's the advantage of a bushing die over a standard full-length die?
Bushing dies size only the neck of your cartridge, leaving the shoulder and body untouched. This preserves case dimensions, extends brass life, and helps you maintain the tight tolerances that competition shooting demands.
Is this die set suitable for competition reloading?
Yes. The RCBS Matchmaster Competition line is specifically engineered for shooters running F-Class, PRS, benchrest, and other precision disciplines where ammunition consistency directly impacts accuracy and performance.
