Rolland6.5 X 53R
Does anyone have a couple of cartridges they would sell? I need factory loadings.

NormanConquestNo, but have you looked in Donnaly's book on Cartridge Conversions as well as COW #2. I know it will not have the correct headstamp but you can make it work for you.If you do not have Donnaly's book ,let me know + I will look it up + forward you the info.

bpesteveI have a couple of bulk packs of military 6,5x53R ammo, and maybe even an old box of Kynoch sporting ammo. The problem, as always, is shipping. I have no idea how to ship ammo as a private individual anymore.
I probably also have several rounds of fired 6,5x53R brass made from .303 British cases (easy to make) but you asked for "factory loadings".

RollandI think UPS handles ammo. I have received ammo before through them. The post office has a regulation against shipping.

NormanConquestThat is correct on shipping. UPS or Fed ex can ship loaded rounds but USPS can not.It should cost a pittance for one round.I just shipped 60 lbs. of M1 Garand ammo in the en bloc clips in the original bandoliers across country for $88.00.
To ship just one cartridge will cost on average about $12 to $15. UPS & FedEx are both front loaded. You pay for one pound minimum.
