The RCBS Matchmaster Competition Full Length Bushing Die Set – 6.5x47mm Lapua is a premium mechanical reloading toolset designed to produce highly consistent and concentric rifle ammunition. Engineered for standard 7/8"-14 threaded reloading presses used across Australia, this manual two-die set allows precision handloaders to achieve exact control over both case neck tension and bullet seating depth.

Key Features

• Full-Length Bushing Sizer Die: Utilizes interchangeable, self-centering neck bushings (sold separately) to allow handloaders to control neck tension to within thousandths of an inch.
• Titanium Carbo-Nitride (TiCN) Expander: The coated expander button significantly reduces brass buildup on the spindle, ensuring a smooth case extraction stroke without requiring heavy inside-neck lubrication.
• Oversized Seating Micrometer: Features highly visible markings that allow precise bullet seating depth adjustments in increments of 0.001 inches.
• Bullet Loading Window: Features a patented opening with a built-in retaining system that allows handloaders to drop the bullet directly into the side of the die rather than balancing it on the case mouth.
• Free-Floating Seating Stem: Features an internal, self-centering seating stem that keeps the bullet perfectly aligned with the case neck during the seating stroke.

Product Specifications

• Compatible Calibre: 6.5x47mm Lapua

Who is the RCBS 6.5x47 Lapua Matchmaster Competition Full Length Die Set for?

• Competitive precision rifle shooters — require the ability to fine-tune bullet seating depth to 0.001 inches of adjustment with this specialized 6.5x47 Lapua competition die set to maximize consistency in long-range matches.
• Benchrest reloaders — demand customized control over neck tension and case sizing using interchangeable neck bushings on standard 7/8"-14 threaded presses to ensure ultimate concentricity for their 6.5x47mm Lapua cartridges.

Less suitable for: reloaders targeting different 6.5mm cartridges such as the 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5 PRC, or handloaders who prefer not to purchase and manage separate neck bushings. For those users, a standard full-length die set (which sizes the entire neck to a fixed SAAMI dimension in a single step) is better suited.
