The L.E. Wilson 6.5x47mm Lapua Bushing Full Length Sizing Die hands you real control over how your brass gets worked. It sizes the case body and bumps the shoulder back to spec while interchangeable neck bushings let you set exactly how much grip you want on the bullet. Because neck tension comes from the bushing instead of a traditional expander ball, you avoid the extra tugging and stretching that wears brass out faster, and that pays off in longer case life and rounds that behave the same from one firing to the next.
Wilson machines these dies from heat treated steel that runs harder than a Grade 8 bolt, so it holds its dimensions through load after load. It threads into any standard 7/8-14 reloading press, so there's no special press or arbor needed for this one. An adjustable depth decapping rod handles primer removal and lets you fine tune for your setup, and Wilson tosses in a spare decapping punch so you're not sidelined if one ever gives out.
The neck bushings are sold separately, which is the whole point of a bushing die. You measure a loaded round's neck diameter, subtract the amount of tension you're after, and order the bushing that lands on that number. Most precision folks keep a few on hand to test what their rifle and brass like best. Wilson's own bushings drop right in, and swapping them takes seconds.
The 6.5x47mm Lapua has earned a loyal following in F-Class, PRS, and benchrest circles for being easy on barrels and genuinely accurate, and it rewards careful brass prep. Pairing this die with an L.E. Wilson case gage is a smart move since it tells you exactly how far you're bumping the shoulder, which keeps you from overworking the brass and chasing inconsistent headspace.
No, the neck bushings are sold separately. That's by design, since it lets you choose the exact bushing size to set the neck tension you want for your brass and load. Wilson recommends using L.E. Wilson bushings, and most reloaders keep a few sizes on hand to test.
Yes. It uses standard 7/8-14 threads, so it fits most common single stage and turret presses with no special adapters. No arbor press is required for this full length die.
Measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded round, then subtract the amount of neck tension you want, usually somewhere around .001 to .003 inch. The resulting number is the bushing size to order. Testing a couple of sizes is the best way to see what your rifle and brass prefer.
A bushing die sets neck tension with the bushing instead of a traditional expander ball, so your brass gets worked less. That reduces stress on the necks, extends case life, and helps deliver more consistent bullet seating and release. It's a popular choice for precision disciplines like F-Class, PRS, and benchrest.
