I've got a reamer and barrel on order and going to rechamber another barrel into 6x47L. I'm looking to get a die to form the brass and from what I read the Forester FL die does a good job. Is this the correct die;

Was hoping to find one used and have been keeping an eye out but nothing has popped up.
 
I use a Forster FL die to form. I remove the decapping rod though as I had a few case necks get crushed I to the shoulder. I just neck upto 6mm using a expander mandrel.
 
I've been using the 6X47 Lapua die by Forster for several years now. I spray with Hornady Oneshot and run thru the Full Length Forster die. Never lost the first case. Couldn't be easier. One pass and its perfect....I set the die so that it just sizes the entire neck but doesn't push the shoulder back. That works great with my chamber. Hope that helps a little......George
