The Hornady Neck Size Die for 6mm Short (.243) is a precision reloading die for handloaders working with short-action 6mm cases such as 6mm BR and similar short-bodied cartridges. Unlike a full-length sizing die, it works only the case neck, preserving the fire-formed body dimensions and reducing case stretch for extended brass life — a technique favoured by benchrest and precision rifle shooters. The die carries Hornady's removable Elliptical Expander, which delivers smoother neck sizing and significantly less friction than conventional ball expanders, while internal threading keeps it firmly in place. The Elliptical Expander and hardened-steel Headed Decap Pin are fitted to a Zip Spindle that locks positively to prevent slippage, with light threads allowing fine incremental adjustments or quick coarse movement. The included Sure-Loc lock ring clamps around the full die body for consistent, secure positioning without marring the threads. Standard 7/8"-14 thread fits all presses that accept standard dies. Shell holder not included. Made in the USA with a no-risk lifetime warranty.
