Forster Full Length Sizing Die 270 Weatherby Mag, Bench Rest

• Full-length sizing function: Sizes the neck, shoulder and case body in one operation, helping fired .270 Weatherby Magnum brass chamber reliably again in rifles cut to SAAMI minimum dimensions.
• Integrated decapping and neck expansion: Removes the spent primer while expanding the case neck on the return stroke, streamlining case prep and keeping brass ready for the next loading step.
• Bench Rest series design: Built for reloaders who want consistent case geometry, with a die layout intended to support repeatable ammunition assembly for hunting and precision rifle use.
• Steel die construction: A steel body stands up to repeated sizing work and maintains the dimensional stability needed for long-term reloading consistency.
• Standard 7/8"-14 thread: Fits common reloading presses, making it easy to integrate into an established bench setup without special adapters.

About the Bench Rest Series

Forster Bench Rest dies sit in the company’s precision-focused reloading line and are aimed at shooters who want tighter control over ammunition fit and alignment than basic loading tools typically provide. Within the range, the series covers both Full Length Sizing Dies and matching seating dies, so reloaders can build a setup around consistent case preparation and careful bullet seating. The series is widely associated with rifle cartridges used for hunting, varmint shooting and precision work, where repeatable chambering and uniform ammunition matter.

In practical terms, the Bench Rest Full Length Sizing Die is designed to return fired brass to a chamber-friendly shape by sizing the neck, shoulder and body, while also de-priming and expanding the neck. Forster describes these dies as producing ammunition with a close chamber fit and notes a vent hole in the die body to reduce the risk of damage from trapped air or excess lubricant during sizing. The overall design philosophy is straightforward: durable steel construction, standard press compatibility and cartridge-specific geometry intended to support careful, repeatable handloading rather than high-volume production.

About the Forster Full Length Sizing Die 270 Weatherby Mag, Bench Rest

The Forster Full Length Sizing Die 270 Weatherby Mag, Bench Rest is built specifically for .270 Weatherby Magnum reloaders who need fired cases brought back to dependable chambering dimensions. In a high-performance belted magnum cartridge, full-length sizing is often the practical choice when brass has been fired multiple times or when ammunition must feed and chamber without hesitation in the field. By sizing the case body, shoulder and neck in one step, this die helps maintain smooth function while preserving a disciplined, repeatable loading workflow.

This model also combines decapping and neck expansion into the sizing cycle, reducing handling between operations and keeping case preparation efficient. That matters on a loading bench where consistency is built from repeatable steps rather than speed alone. The steel construction supports long service life under the heavier working loads common with magnum rifle brass, while the standard 7/8"-14 thread means it fits the broad range of conventional presses already used by experienced handloaders.

As a single standard full-length sizing die rather than a bushing system, it suits reloaders who want a direct, established setup for routine brass preparation. For hunting ammunition in particular, that approach has clear value: cases are resized for reliable chambering, spent primers are removed during the same operation, and the neck is expanded for the next stage of loading. The result is a die that fits naturally into a precise but practical rifle reloading process.

About Forster

Forster Products dates its history to 1935 and has long focused on tools for precision reloading and gunsmithing. The company is based in Lanark, Illinois, and states that its products are made in the United States. Across its range, Forster is known for equipment such as reloading dies, case trimmers, headspace gauges and sight-mounting fixtures, serving handloaders and gunsmiths who value repeatable mechanical accuracy.

Within reloading, the brand is particularly associated with products such as the Co-Ax Press and its Bench Rest die lines. That background is relevant here because Forster’s die designs are built around controlled case alignment and consistent cartridge preparation rather than simple volume loading. The company reported an ownership change in 2025, when Iron Door Holding became the owner of Forster Products.
