L.E. Wilson 6mm PPC Bushing Neck Sizing Die | SND-PPC

Description

The 6mm PPC is a benchrest legend for a reason, and getting the most out of it starts at the reloading bench. L.E. Wilson's bushing neck sizing die is built for the handloader who wants full control over neck tension instead of settling for whatever a one-size expander hands them. Drop in the bushing that matches your brass and bullet combo, and the die squeezes down just the outside of the neck while leaving your fire-formed cases alone. This same die handles 22 PPC brass too, so it covers both sides of the PPC family.

How the 6mm PPC Neck Die Does Its Job

This die sizes the outside of the case neck to about 3/16 inch from the mouth, which lets you decide precisely how much of the neck gets worked. There's no conventional expander ball pulling through the inside of the neck, so you get better concentricity and brass that lasts longer before it starts to split or stretch out of spec. It accepts both Redding and Wilson neck sizing bushings, giving you a wide range of sizes to fine-tune tension down to a thousandth or two.

Built the Way Wilson Builds Everything

This is a hand-type die, meaning it's run with an arbor press or tapped through with a plastic mallet rather than threaded into a standard 7/8-14 press. That inline design is a big part of why benchrest crowds trust these for straight, repeatable ammo. The die is machined to tight tolerances from heat-treated steel and made in the USA, so it holds up to a long life of loading sessions.

Getting Set Up With the SND-PPC

Keep in mind the bushings are sold separately, so you'll want to measure a loaded round or your neck wall thickness to pick the right size before your first session. A lot of folks pair this neck die with a Wilson decapping base to knock out spent primers in the same workflow. If you're chasing tiny groups out of a 6 PPC, this is the kind of tooling that gets you there.
