Hand reloading die

[Webphut]

Is there a inline full length bushing style resizing die on the market that can be used with the Arbor press? I Googled with no such finding of one. I ask because I think it would be nice to have the ability too full length resize and keep the concentricy benefit of the inline neck sizing dies.

I saw some older FL hand dies that if I remember right were Wilson. I think the reloader had to use a mallet instead of an arbor press though.

You can add a press top bushing to a normal 7/8-14 thread FL bushing die. the press bushing forms an adjustable base for your die.
Since you are using it with bushings you will not need an expander button. I would prefer to knock out the primers with a long heavy separate rod. Then use that rod to push the case out of the die with the press.

Turn the bushing flange down and lock it in place with a 7/8-14 lock ring. Adjust as required.

Ok, after some googling images, I seen one Wilson inline FL resizing die. I may enjoy its simplicity, but I think maybe using my Harrels compact mag press will be fine in the end. Im going to buy my first bushing type fl resizing die and wilson looks good. It does not come with ball expander. After several months now, I now have a grasp on the ins and outs and pros and cons on 6ppc reloading.

Yes, L.E. Wilson did make FL hand dies at some point (I am fortunate to have purchased 2 sets from a gentleman on this site). However, they are not bushing FL dies, neck sizing is a separate die and extra step.

Yeah, i have the neck dies, but been fl resizing more and more while moving away from neck sizing.
