Quick Tip: How To Use L.E. Wilson Bushing Dies
This guide explains the function and setup of L.E. Wilson bushing dies for reloading. It details how bushing dies offer adjustable neck sizing by using interchangeable bushings, which is crucial for managing varying brass neck thicknesses across different manufacturers and calibers. The process involves measuring the cartridge neck, selecting a bushing (typically 0.001" to 0.003" smaller than the loaded cartridge neck diameter), inserting it into the die, and setting the stem to allow for slight float. This method helps improve case concentricity and consistency, especially for precision shooting applications.
