7 mm TCU Redding type S die for 6 TCU

[centershot]

I assume that a 7 TCU die will work for a 6 TCU with the correct neck bushing?

OK, I would not make that assumption but I have not seen the specs for both. Won't the shoulder area (the neck to shoulder junction be a different diameter?

I checked with Redding in the past and was told that bushing dies will typically go a caliber in either direction. 7 to 6.5 should work. You might want to check that 7 to 6 will work. It should, going down, as the neck will be larger than that required for 6mm.

Yes it will work for neck sizing. You need to form the brass with regular TCU dies and get a good fireform and anneal the brass before using it tho....
