Reloading 7mm PRC and want tighter control over how your brass comes out? The L.E. Wilson Bushing Full Length Sizing Die handles the case body and shoulder in the same pass that it sizes the neck, and because it works off interchangeable bushings instead of an expander ball, you get to decide exactly how much tension sits on your bullet. That's the kind of repeatability that shows up on paper when you're stretching things out past 1,000 yards.
The bushing-type design is the whole story here. Instead of running the neck over a fixed expander, you drop in a bushing sized to your brass and bullet combo. The common method is measuring the outside neck diameter of a loaded round, then subtracting .002 to .003 to account for brass spring-back. That leaves you with roughly a thousandth or two of bullet grip, which is what benchrest and precision loaders chase for consistent seating. Bushings are sold separately, so you can keep a few on hand and tune tension as your brass work-hardens or you switch bullets.
This die is machined from high quality heat-treated steel, hardened to L.E. Wilson's spec and tougher than a Grade 8 bolt, with stainless parts for a long-lasting finish. It threads right into any standard 7/8" reloading press, so it drops into the setup you already own. An adjustable-depth decapping rod handles primer removal and lets you set pin depth to suit your brass, and Wilson includes a spare decapping punch in the box. Worth noting, there's no expander ball in this die by design, which is exactly why it works so brass stress stays low and case life stretches out.
Pairing this die with an L.E. Wilson case gage makes setup straightforward and keeps you from overworking your brass when you bump the shoulder. If your neck walls are already uniform, you can run the bushing alone and seat straight away. Loaders chasing the last bit of consistency often add a mandrel step or neck-turned brass, but plenty of folks get excellent results with the bushing on its own. It's a smart choice for anyone building accurate 7mm PRC handloads who wants to stop fighting their dies and start trusting their process.
No, the bushings are sold separately so you can match tension to your exact brass and bullet. To find your size, measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded round and subtract .002 to .003 for brass spring-back. Keeping a couple of bushing sizes on hand lets you fine-tune as your brass ages or you change bullets.
Yes. It's threaded for a standard 7/8" reloading press, so it drops into just about any common single-stage or turret setup you already run. No special adapter needed.
It's a full length die, so it sizes the case body and bumps the shoulder while sizing the neck in the same stroke. The bushing handles the neck tension portion, and the die decaps the case at the same time. That gives you complete case sizing and tension control in one operation.
Not necessarily. The bushing design controls neck tension without an expander ball, which keeps brass stress down and helps case life. If your neck walls are uniform you can seat straight off the bushing, though some precision loaders add a mandrel step or neck-turned brass to chase even tighter consistency.
