Rcbs Matchmaster Competition Neck Bushing Set 6.5Mm Cm
The RCBS Matchmaster Competition Neck Bushing Set for 6.5mm Creedmoor gives precision reloaders the adjustability that benchrest and long-range shooters have relied on for years. This neck-sizing system lets you fine-tune bullet tension by swapping interchangeable neck bushings, giving you control over how tightly the case grips the bullet. That precision matters when you're chasing sub-MOA groups or competing where tenths count.
The Matchmaster dies are built from case-hardened steel with precision-drilled and hand-polished internal surfaces. The neck bushing approach keeps sizing work to a minimum—you're only working the neck, not the entire case—so your brass lasts longer and stays more consistent across reloads. The included Titanium Carbo Nitride expander reduces brass buildup and makes extraction smooth, which matters when you're processing volume or just tired of fighting sticky cases.
The seating die is where the Matchmaster really shines for everyday reloading. Its large micrometer adjustment knob has oversized lettering and hash marks, so you can dial in your seating depth with confidence and read it easily from across the bench. The exclusive loading window and internal bullet-retention system let you drop the bullet in and run the press without balancing or risking your fingers—the die automatically centers and guides the bullet for consistently concentric seating. Standard 7/8"-14 thread fits any single-stage or turret press.
This is a neck-sizing die set; you'll need to purchase the appropriate neck bushings separately to set your desired neck tension. It's a system built for reloaders who want control, repeatability, and brass longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What neck bushings do I need, and are they included?
Neck bushings are sold separately. You'll need to select the appropriate bushing diameter for your desired neck tension on 6.5mm Creedmoor brass. The set includes the sizing and seating dies; bushings are ordered based on your specific reloading needs.
Can I use this set in my single-stage press?
Yes. The dies feature a standard 7/8"-14 thread, so they work in any single-stage, turret, or progressive press with that standard thread.
Is this a full-length or neck-only sizing die?
This is a neck-sizing die set. It sizes only the neck of the case, which extends brass life and reduces the working of your cases compared to full-length sizing.
What's the Titanium Carbo Nitride expander for?
The included Titanium Carbo Nitride expander reduces buildup on the expander ball and makes case extraction smoother and easier, helping your workflow stay efficient.
