Going to get some Type S dies for my 6mm br build.. If the dies are labled as 6mm br Remington is that what I want for my 6br.. lapua brass.. This set here if this copy/paste works..

Don't do it.
Wait until your build is finished.
buy a Wilson in line seater die. Make up from new brass and fire 3 pieces in your chamber and send to Harrell's for a matched to your chamber sizing die.
$75 for the sizing die $50 for the seating die. You need several bushings for the Harrell die they will use the type S bushings


This is the best advise I got from this site when I first started loading for my. BR

I'm listening..

About 6 years ago I used the type s full length on my 6br. I adjusted to just size the neck till i needed to bump the shoulder.

What is the advantage of your theory ?? (no sarcasm intended. I just want to know/learn)..

Thanks, Barber

I did some reading and I believe I understand now.. Harrells will be a die fit to my chamber. Along with bushings for the neck .. I can size the case at one continuous size, but still have flexibility on the tension..
What about the whidden bushing dies??
Thanks, Barber

I don't have any experience with the whidden dies.
I have several Redding S dies for other calibers and they are good dies for a factory die.
IMO If your trying do achieve the best accuracy possible with your set up the HARREL sizing die matched to your chamber vs a good factory sammi die is no question. The same goes for the Wilson in line chamber type seater die much more accurate than any of the others. You will need an arbor press for the Wilson

Again all this is based on my experience with both types of dies
