The 6mm Dasher built its reputation on tiny groups and low ES/SD numbers, and the brass work that gets you there starts with the right sizing die. L.E. Wilson's bushing-type full length die lets you size the neck to your chosen tension and bring the shoulder and body back to spec in a single pass. Because you pick the bushing, you're only moving the brass as much as the chamber actually requires, not a hair more.
Unlike a standard FL die with a fixed neck, this one uses interchangeable bushings so you set neck tension by swapping to the diameter you want. One nice touch is how it's cut to leave roughly 3/16" at the base of the neck unsized. A lot of precision reloaders prefer that approach since it helps keep the brass from getting overworked and tends to run more consistently round after round.
These are machined from heat treated steel hardened to L.E. Wilson's own spec, which they describe as harder than a Grade 8 bolt. It threads into any standard 7/8-14 reloading press and ships with a Wilson-made lock nut. The die includes an adjustable depth decapping rod plus a spare decapping punch, and it does not use an expander. Worth noting for Dasher folks running small rifle primer brass like Lapua or Peterson: those cases use a smaller flash hole, so make sure your decapping pin matches.
The neck bushing is sold separately so you can tune tension to your load. L.E. Wilson neck bushings are the natural match, though Redding bushings will drop in and fit as well. Pair the die with a Wilson case gage and you've got a clean way to check your sizing and avoid pushing the shoulder back too far. For a cartridge that lives and dies on consistency, that kind of control is exactly what you're after.
No, the neck bushing is sold separately so you can choose the exact diameter that gives you the neck tension you want. L.E. Wilson neck bushings are the recommended match, but Redding bushings will also fit. This lets you fine tune the die to your specific brass and load.
It uses standard 7/8-14 threads, so it works in any common single stage or turret reloading press. It threads in like any other full length die and comes with a Wilson-made lock nut to hold your setting.
No, this die does not use an expander. Neck tension is set entirely by the bushing you select, which is the whole point of a bushing-style die. It ships with an adjustable depth decapping rod and an extra decapping punch for removing spent primers.
This is a full length die, so it sizes the shoulder and body dimensions along with the neck in one stroke. It's designed to leave about 3/16" at the base of the neck unsized, which many precision shooters prefer for more consistent results and longer brass life. Pairing it with a Wilson case gage helps you avoid bumping the shoulder back too far.
