Resize die for 6BRA

I tried to buy a Harrell's and didn't have any fired brass, told them reamer that was used and was told they don't sell a die based off of a reamer, I replied I understood but needed a die to start with as I couldn't send fired brass until I could resize some. Told that was only way they sold dies.....................so I hung up and ordered a Whidden.

I just lightly tapped a bushing onto the neck of my 3 pieces of brass and sized just enough to hold a bullet. Did that three times and headed to the post office and mailed them to Harrels. They had the die back to me unbelievably fast!

You were smarter than I was, but the Whidden works just fine.

You don't need the correct sizer die to start with a piece of new brass just to load and shoot it a couple of times, just so it will hold a bullet. So if you have a seater you are good to go..... jim

I don't have any experience with Harrell's, so I can't speak to that. Sounds like they make an excellent product. Like you I got a Whidden, click adjustable FL sizer based off my reamer print and I'm pretty happy with the purchase.
 
I have the Whidden dies. I sent a reamer print to them and they advised it matched up to their FL die. I ordered the set with a FL bushing click adjustable die and micrometer seater. It got here in three days and life is good.
But, just in case you want to save some $$, the 6 Dasher seater will seat bullets on 6BRA just fine.
