Description
The Redding Type S-Match Bushing Full Length Die Set in 6mm BR Remington is built for the handloader who treats every round like it matters. This two-die set pairs a Type S bushing full-length sizing die with a Competition Seating Die, giving you the tools to size the case body, bump the shoulder, and dial in neck tension all in one smooth operation. For a cartridge like the 6mm BR that lives and dies by consistency, this is the kind of setup that turns good brass into match-ready ammo.
What the 6mm BR Type S Sizing Die Brings to the Bench
The heart of this set is the bushing system. Instead of a fixed neck diameter, you pick interchangeable bushings in .001 inch increments, so you control exactly how much neck tension you want on your bullets. The bushings self-center on the case neck to improve concentricity, and the adjustable decapping rod lets you position the bushing to size only part of the neck if that's your preference. Pull the bushing and the internal parts out entirely and the same die works as a body die, which is a handy bit of versatility for a precision shooter running multiple sizing steps.
Dialing In Seating Depth With the Competition Seater
The Competition Seating Die is where this set earns its keep for accuracy nuts. It uses a sliding sleeve that supports and aligns the case and bullet before the bullet ever starts into the neck, which cuts down on runout. The micrometer adjusting head reads in .001 inch increments, so finding your node and returning to it later is quick and repeatable. One thing worth noting from Redding: the Competition Seating Die isn't meant for use with compressed powder charges.
A Few Things to Know Before You Order
This set ships without bushings and without a shellholder, so you'll want to pick those up separately to match your load. Everything comes packed in a protective storage box. Bushings are sold in both steel and titanium nitride, and sizing your fired brass first is the easiest way to measure the neck and choose the right bushing size for the tension you're after.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 6mm BR Type S-Match die set come with bushings?
No, the bushings are sold separately so you can match the exact neck tension your load calls for. Redding offers them in .001 inch increments in both steel and titanium nitride. The easiest way to size your bushing is to measure the neck diameter of a loaded round and subtract the tension you want.
Is a shellholder included with this Redding die set?
No, the shellholder is not included and needs to be purchased separately. The 6mm BR uses the same shellholder family as several other small-base cartridges, so there's a good chance you already have one on the bench if you reload similar rounds.
Can the sizing die in this set be used as a body die?
Yes. By removing the bushing and all of the internal parts, the Type S full length sizing die doubles as a body die. That makes it a flexible option if you want to separate your body sizing and neck sizing into different steps.
What makes the Competition Seating Die more precise?
It uses a sliding sleeve that aligns the case and bullet before seating begins, which reduces runout and improves concentricity. The micrometer head reads in .001 inch increments for fast, repeatable seating depth changes. Keep in mind Redding notes this seater is not intended for use with compressed loads.
