RCBS has announced it will begin shipping the 6mm ARC Small Base Taper Crimp Die Set, a new addition to the AR Series line of dies for progressive reloaders. The 6mm ARC SB T/C Die Set (#28007), is specially designed for the versatile 6mm ARC cartridge, which utilizes efficient, high ballistic-coefficient bullets to deliver top performance from AR-15 rifles. Each set features a Small Base die that sizes the case to slightly below minimum specifications, to ensure each round chambers in an AR-style rifle, and a Taper Crimp seating die to put the correct crimp on the case.
