Description
L.E. Wilson has been building precision reloading tools in the USA for decades, and this 22 PPC Factory full length sizing die is a great example of why benchrest and varmint crowds keep coming back to them. It sizes the shoulder and body dimensions while using an interchangeable bushing to set your neck tension, so you get a proper full length resize and fine control over how much the neck grips the bullet. There's an adjustable depth decapping rod built in, plus a spare decapping punch tucked in the box.
What Sets the 22 PPC Factory Full Length Die Apart
Instead of running a traditional expander ball, this die relies on a bushing to size the outside of the neck. That eliminates the drag and pull of an expander, which keeps your necks more concentric and extends brass life. Swap the bushing to tighten or loosen neck tension, and you're tuning your loads without buying a whole new die. Worth noting: the bushing is sold separately, and it accepts L.E. Wilson bushings as well as Redding bushings, so you've got options.
Why the Bushing Design Helps Accuracy
These full length bushing dies are designed to leave about 3/16 inch at the base of the neck unsized, mimicking the behavior of Wilson's dedicated neck dies. A lot of precision reloaders prefer that approach and find it helps with consistency and runout. The body is hardened past a Grade 8 bolt, with stainless parts for a long-lasting finish, and it runs on a standard 7/8-14 threaded press just like your other dies.
Getting the Most Out of This 22 PPC Die
Pair it with an L.E. Wilson case gage to check your sizing and avoid overworking your brass. The Factory designation means it's cut for cases fireformed in a factory 22 PPC chamber, so make sure that matches your rifle before setting up. Dial in the right bushing, set your shoulder bump, and you've got a die that'll help turn out match-grade ammo load after load.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 22 PPC Factory full length sizing die come with a bushing?
No, the neck bushing is sold separately. This lets you pick the exact bushing size for the neck tension you want based on your brass and loaded round measurements. The die accepts L.E. Wilson bushings and will also take Redding bushings if that's what you have on hand.
What's the difference between the 22 PPC Factory and Match versions of this die?
The Factory version is dimensioned for cases fireformed in a factory-chambered 22 PPC rifle, while the Match version is cut for tighter match chambers. Check which chamber your rifle has before ordering so your sizing lines up correctly. If you're shooting a standard factory 22 PPC, this is the one you want.
Does this die use an expander ball?
It does not. Rather than a traditional expander, it uses an interchangeable bushing to size the outside of the case neck. Removing the expander improves neck concentricity and reduces the stress on your brass, which helps your cases last longer.
Will this die work in a standard reloading press?
Yes. It features standard 7/8-14 threads and runs in common single-stage or turret presses just like the rest of your dies. Pairing it with an L.E. Wilson case gage is a smart move for checking your shoulder bump and avoiding overworked brass.
