RCBS 28201 Full Length Die Set 6.8 Western 2-Die Reloading Kit

The RCBS 28201 Full Length Die Set delivers precision reloading capabilities for the 6.8 Western cartridge, providing handloaders with the tools needed to produce accurate, consistent ammunition. This two-die set incorporates RCBS's proven manufacturing standards to ensure proper case sizing and bullet seating for optimal performance.

What Makes This Different

The 6.8 Western chambering requires specialized dies engineered for its unique case dimensions and shoulder angle. RCBS designs these dies with tighter manufacturing tolerances than standard production dies, maintaining case concentricity within 0.002 inches. The full-length sizing die handles complete case preparation, while the bullet seating die provides precise depth control for consistent cartridge overall length.

Key Features

• Full-length sizing die resizes entire case body and neck for reliable chambering
• Bullet seating die with built-in roll crimp for secure bullet retention
• Heat-treated steel construction with polished interior surfaces
• Standard 7/8-14 threading fits most reloading presses
• Includes shell holder specifically sized for 6.8 Western cases
• Detailed instructions with load data recommendations included
• Compatible with RCBS, Lee, Hornady, and other standard presses

Handloaders report consistent case life extension when using proper full-length sizing techniques with these dies. The 6.8 Western's moderate case capacity responds well to precision reloading, with many achieving sub-MOA accuracy in bolt-action rifles. The dies handle both factory brass and fire-formed cases effectively, maintaining proper headspace relationships throughout the reloading cycle.
