If you reload 6.5x55 Swedish ammunition, a Forster Products Inc full length sizing die is built to deliver the concentricity and precision that separates handloads from factory ammunition. This die handles the critical first step in the reloading process: sizing fired brass back to specification so it chambers reliably and performs consistently downrange. Forster's reputation in the reloading community rests on rigorous manufacturing—each die is machined from quality steel to tight tolerances, hand polished before and after heat treatment, and engineered for the kind of repeatability serious hunters and match shooters depend on.
The standout feature here is Forster's E-Z Out expander button, positioned higher in the neck than competing designs. That placement matters: it keeps the case neck and body axis aligned during the expansion stroke, reducing runout and helping you produce rounds that chamber smoothly and shoot true. Combined with Forster's Cross Bolt Die Locking Ring—a split-ring design that tightens from both ends rather than pinching threads—you get a die that holds its zero shot after shot and won't strip out from repeated adjustments.
Whether you're prepping brass for a bolt-action hunting rifle, a precision rifle match, or a semi-auto platform chambered in this classic Scandinavian round, this full length sizing die is sized and threaded for standard reloading press compatibility. It's the kind of tool that justifies the investment if you're committed to consistent, quality handloads.

Yes. This die is threaded for standard reloading press mounting. Confirm your press has 7/8"-14 threads (the industry standard for most single-stage and progressive presses).
Full length sizing resizes the entire cartridge case—neck, shoulder, and body—back to specifications. It's the choice for hunting rifles and magazine-fed firearms where you need consistent chamber fit across different guns. For bolt-action single-shot or precision rifle scenarios where you're reloading for one rifle, neck sizing alone may be preferred.
The die itself. You'll need a reloading press, shell holder for 6.5x55 Swedish, and other components as part of your reloading setup, which are sold separately.
The E-Z Out expander button design and Forster's manufacturing tolerances are engineered to help produce concentric rounds. However, runout is also affected by your press, shell holder, and case quality. Forster's high standards minimize die-induced runout.
