The 6mm PPC Small Base Bushing Full Length Type S Die from Redding is built for the benchrest and varmint crowd running 6 PPC in bolt and semi-auto rifles where reliable feeding matters. This is Redding part number 77211, and the small base cut sizes the case body down a touch further than a standard full length die, bringing brass back toward minimum specs so rounds chamber smooth and feed without a hitch.
What sets the Type S apart is the interchangeable bushing system. Rather than being stuck with a single fixed neck diameter, you pick a bushing in .001" increments to set exactly how much you squeeze the neck, which means less overworking of the brass, better case life, and more consistent neck tension round after round. The bushings self-center on the case neck as the case travels up into the die, and that little bit of float does real work when it comes to keeping runout low and concentricity tight. Bushings are sold separately, so you can match the size to your particular brass and chamber.
The adjustable decapping rod lets you position the bushing so you can size only part of the neck length if that is how you like to run things. The die ships with both a standard sizing button and a decapping pin retainer. Use the sizing button for factory or un-turned brass to keep a consistent inside neck diameter, or swap in the pin retainer if you turn your necks and want the bushing alone to set tension.
Pull the bushing and the internal parts out and this die doubles as a body die, bumping the shoulder and sizing the body without touching the neck. With small base sizing it is worth running plenty of good case lube, since that extra base reduction asks a bit more of the brass and the press on the downstroke. For anyone chasing accuracy with 6mm PPC and wanting brass that chambers every time, this die covers a lot of ground.
No, bushings are sold separately so you can match the exact neck diameter to your brass and chamber. They are available in .001" increments, which lets you fine tune neck tension. A common approach is to measure a loaded round and select a bushing about .002" to .003" smaller.
A small base die sizes the case body down a bit more than a standard full length die, bringing the brass closer to minimum specifications. That extra reduction near the base helps rounds chamber easily and feed reliably, which is especially handy in semi-auto and gas guns. Use good case lube, since the added base sizing works the brass a little harder.
Yes. The die ships with a decapping pin retainer you can install in place of the sizing button. That setup is popular with folks who turn or sort their case necks and want the bushing alone to set neck tension for maximum consistency.
It can. Remove the bushing and the internal parts and the die will size the case body and bump the shoulder without sizing the neck. That makes it a flexible tool if you like to separate body sizing from neck sizing in your 6mm PPC process.
