Precision expanding mandrel die for .30 caliber brass preparation. Stainless steel construction with interchangeable mandrels, cut-out viewing window, and L.E. Wilson lock nut. Made in USA.
The L.E. Wilson Expanding Mandrel Die is an essential tool for serious handloaders who demand consistency and precision. This specialized die prepares brass cases for optimal bullet seating by expanding the case neck to slightly under bullet diameter, ensuring uniform neck tension and repeatable seating depth.
New brass often arrives with inconsistent neck dimensions or minor damage from bulk shipping. This die ensures every case is properly prepared before firing, eliminating variables that affect accuracy. The expanding mandrel approach provides superior neck tension control compared to traditional sizing methods, resulting in tighter shot groups and more reliable ammunition performance.
This package includes one mandrel sized for .3075-inch diameter. The included L.E. Wilson lock nut measures .225 inches thick (inside to outside edge), .270 inches in height, and 1.250 inches in overall width.
A must-have for reloaders pursuing match-grade ammunition.
