The Redding 6.5-284 Norma bushing die set brings precision handloading to one of the most accurate medium-range cartridges available. Built on Redding's proven Type S platform, this three-die set delivers the control and consistency serious reloaders need to maximize the 6.5-284 Norma's inherent accuracy—whether you're prepping ammo for competition, hunting, or the bench. The system's hallmark feature is interchangeable bushings that let you dial in neck tension to 0.001" increments, giving you real authority over how tight the case neck grips your bullet without overworking the brass.
What makes the Type S Elite approach work is the free-floating bushing design, which self-centers on the case neck for repeatable, even sizing. Redding offers bushings in standard hardened steel or with a TIN (Titanium Nitride) coating—the coated option reduces friction further, making the seating stroke smoother and extending bushing life. This matters when you're chasing sub-quarter-MOA groups or loading hundreds of rounds per season. The full sizing die and neck die handle the heavy lifting, prepping your brass to exacting standards, while the included competition seating die ensures bullet run-out stays minimal and primer seating stays uniform.
If you've been running generic dies and wondering why your velocities or groups are inconsistent, this is the upgrade that pays dividends. The 6.5-284 Norma rewards precision, and this set was built to deliver it.

| Die Type | Type S Bushing (Full Sizing, Neck Sizing, Competition Seating) |

Yes. The Type S bushing system uses interchangeable bushings to control neck diameter and tension in 0.001" increments. Bushings are available in hardened steel or with a TIN coating for reduced friction, allowing you to tune neck tension to your brass, bullet, and loading preferences without replacing the entire die.
Yes. The set includes Redding's competition seating die, which is designed to deliver precise bullet seating and minimize run-out for the highest consistency.
The bushing floats and self-centers on the case neck during sizing, which provides more uniform, even sizing pressure around the entire neck. This reduces run-out and improves shot-to-shot consistency, especially important in precision rifle loading.
