The Redding Type S Neck Die Set for 6.5 PRC is built for handloaders who want real control over neck tension and want their brass to last. Instead of sizing the whole case every time, this set lets you neck size with interchangeable bushings so you preserve that fire-formed fit and squeeze more loadings out of every piece of brass. It's a favorite among precision rifle folks chasing tight, repeatable groups out of the 6.5 PRC.
The heart of this set is the Type S bushing neck sizing die. It uses interchangeable sizing bushings available in .001 inch increments, so you can set your neck tension exactly where you want it rather than being stuck with whatever a one-size die gives you. The bushing self-centers on the case neck, which helps keep concentricity in check, and the adjustable decapping rod lets you size only part of the neck length if that's your preference. The rod comes with a standard size button, which is handy if you're running commercial brass as is. A decapping pin retainer is included too, so if you sort or turn your necks for uniformity you can run the die without the size button entirely.
This is a three-die setup. Along with the Type S bushing neck sizing die, you get a body die for full-length resizing the case body and bumping the shoulder back when cases start getting sticky in the chamber, plus a Regular Series 92000 standard seating die for getting your bullets seated. That combo covers neck sizing for most firings and gives you a way to tune body fit and shoulder bump when you need it.
A couple things worth knowing before you order: the sizing bushings and the shell holder are sold separately, so you'll want to pick up the right bushing diameter for your brass and neck tension goals. Everything is case-hardened steel and packed in a storage box, ready to get to work on your 6.5 PRC loads.
No, the sizing bushings are sold separately. This lets you choose the exact bushing diameter for the neck tension you want, since different brass and loading goals call for different sizes. Measure a loaded round's neck diameter and subtract your desired tension to pick the right bushing.
You get three dies: the Type S bushing neck sizing die, a body die, and a Regular Series 92000 standard seating die. The neck die handles neck tension with bushings, the body die resizes the case body and bumps the shoulder when needed, and the seater handles bullet seating. Note this is the standard seater, not the micrometer competition seating die found in the Type S-Match set.
No, the shell holder is not included and needs to be purchased separately. The 6.5 PRC uses the same shell holder as several other magnum-head cartridges, so check your press's shell holder chart for the correct size.
Neck sizing with the Type S die only works the case neck and leaves the fire-formed body alone, which reduces brass stretching and typically extends case life. It can also help with consistency since the brass stays fitted to your chamber. The included body die is there for when cases eventually need the body resized or the shoulder bumped for easy chambering.
