LE Wilson Bushing FLS die for 6 BRA

[260AckImp]

Hello everyone

Im thinking about having a 6 BRA barrel spun up for my rifle and I see LE Wilson make an off the shelf FLS bushing die for the 6 BRA.

Has anyone had experience with them? Does the die suit a certain reamer print?

Any info appreciated

They are based off of the wheeler number one reamer and size very close to a Harrell’s #3
Excellent die

I have them in my store. I have sold about 40 of them. Outstanding.

I have them in stock.

The Wilson F/L bushing die for the 30BR and 6BRX both work really good. Smoother than the Redding for sure.

As smooth as a Harrell's at least.

I think Harrell’s is fine, perhaps utilitarian whereas Wilson is a step up in design and finish.

I have both dies…

Y’all made me feel really good about the GT sizer I ordered. I let a friend have my whidden and replaced it with the Wilson. Can’t wait to use it! I had them verify their dimensions against my reamer as well.

Fit feel and function is 100% with Wilson.

After using their seaters and trimmer for so long, it seemed like a no brainer!

Urbanrifleman, do you charge state sales tax for Texas?

Thanks everyone for the help and information.

I was hoping to get a 6 BRA Wheeler #1 reamer and go with the .272" neck. Im glad to hear that it will suit these Wilson FLS dies.

No. Just Oklahoma.

Beautiful die...it looks like it came from a jewlery store. At least for 6.5x47 its a .0005 concentricity on the neck.

 

[DeltaBravo]

No. Just Oklahoma.

Thanks.

What diameter does the Wilson size the body to, next to the shoulder?

I have that information in my shop, I’m out scouting now, so it shouldn’t be tooo long

 

[JFrank]

This is pretty self explanatory, and before I sent my Wilson back for a slight honing.

 

[dgeesaman]

Interesting. I'm on a JGS Wheeler #1 reamer also and I had a Whidden die made using fired brass and it sizes to just a hair under .462 at the shoulder. Sizing to .458 at the shoulder is much more aggressive.

 

[JFrank]

Yes and a bit more than I liked, so after honing I’m . 459ish at the CSJ .469 at the base

Added- this is just what works for me and for my application they chamber freely before and after ignition.

Spun up? What's spun up...a new process?
Or are you having a gunsmith chamber a new barrel in 6BRA for you, through the orginal process...My Wilson bushing dies work great and I prefer them, mine are in 308, 6.5 Creedmoor, and 6 Dasher...all chambers and brass are no neck turn, for Lapua, and Alpha in the Dasher.
