This is the starting point for a one-of-a-kind seating die. The L.E. Wilson 6mm Stainless Micrometer Top Seater Die Blank is a partially machined stainless steel piece meant for reloaders and gunsmiths who want to build a seater matched to their own chamber instead of settling for an off-the-shelf option. The bore hole comes finished for proper alignment, the blank is left intentionally long so you can trim it to the correct length, and the neck and pilot hole are pre-drilled through to that finished bore. From there, you chamber it to your cartridge with your own reamer. A chambering guide is included to walk you through the process.
Wildcat cartridges and custom reamer jobs are exactly where this blank earns its keep. If you are running a 6mm round that nobody makes a factory die for, this gives you full control over seating geometry and a true chamber match. It is an inline, chamber-style design, which means the case and bullet are completely captured by the die before the bullet is pushed straight into the case by a close-fitting seating stem. That is the same principle that makes Wilson's finished chamber-type seaters a favorite on the benchrest line, and it generally produces straighter rounds than a conventional threaded press die.
The built-in micrometer top is the real draw here. Once your die is chambered and finished, the micrometer gives you fine seating depth adjustment on an easy to read scale in .001 inch graduations, so you can dial in a load and come back to the exact same number later. Larger seating changes are handled through the 3/8 inch – 24 TPI threads in the cap.
Keep in mind this is a hand die built for use with an arbor press, not a conventional reloading press. It is made from long-lasting stainless steel and ships with the cap stem, micrometer, and base, leaving you the final chambering work to complete it for your 6mm cartridge.
No, this is a blank meant to be finished. The bore hole is already machined and the neck and pilot hole are pre-drilled, but you still need to trim it to length and chamber it to your cartridge with your own reamer. A chambering guide is included to help with that final step.
The blank exists for cartridges that do not have a factory die available, like wildcats or custom reamer designs. It lets you match the die to your exact chamber and control the seating geometry yourself. For a standard 6mm cartridge, a pre-chambered die is the simpler route.
No, this is a hand die designed for use with an arbor press. The inline chamber-type design captures both the case and bullet and seats the bullet straight in, which is why it is popular with precision and benchrest reloaders.
The built-in micrometer adjusts in .001 inch graduations on an easy to read scale, so you can repeat a setting exactly during load development. Larger adjustments are made through the 3/8 inch – 24 TPI threaded cap.
