Redding 6.5X47Mm Lapua Bushing Full Length Die Set

Precision rifle reloading starts with the right tooling, and the Redding 6.5x47mm Lapua bushing full length die set gives you the control competitive shooters and serious handloaders demand. This two-die set pairs a Type S bushing full sizing die with a competition bullet seating die, letting you resize cases to exacting standards while maintaining repeatable neck tension shot after shot. Whether you're chasing sub-MOA groups at the range or preparing match ammunition, this set puts the variables in your hands.

The Type S bushing sizing die is where precision lives. Unlike standard dies, it lets you choose interchangeable bushings to dial in exactly how much neck tension you want. This approach beats one-size-fits-all sizing because every rifle and every load has its own sweet spot—and with bushings, you can find yours without guesswork. The full-length sizing action works across the entire case, ensuring consistent case life and reliable feeding.

Seating consistency matters just as much as sizing. The competition seating die features a micrometer calibrated in .001" increments, so you can dial in bullet seating depth with repeatable precision. The floating seating stem system keeps bullets running true in the case neck, cutting concentricity errors that throw off accuracy. For a 6.5x47 Lapua—a cartridge built for precision—that kind of control is not optional.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a bushing die and a standard full-length die?

Bushing dies let you swap interchangeable bushings to control how much the die sizes the case neck. A standard die comes with a fixed sizing button. With bushings, you can match your specific rifle's chamber and find the exact neck tension your load prefers—tighter for less runout, looser for easier feeding.

Do the bushings come with this set?

The set includes the sizing die and seating die. Interchangeable bushings are sold separately, allowing you to start with one and add more as you fine-tune your loads.

Is this die set suitable for precision rifle competition?

Yes. The competition seating die with .001" micrometer adjustment and floating stem is designed specifically for the precision and consistency competitive handloaders demand. The bushing sizing die adds another layer of control over case neck geometry.

What caliber-specific dies are included?

This set is designed for 6.5x47mm Lapua only. If you reload a different cartridge, you'll need the appropriate die set for that caliber.
