I have a ton of RWS and Norma 308 brass. It needs to be 6.5 CM. What is the correct procedure for doing this? | ||

If it is once fired brass I would anneal, then rough trim. size down in 6.5 CM die using Imperial sizing die wax to just chamber with a little force, load and fire form, then do a final trim. You must realize you arm blowing out the sides of the case when fireforming which will shorten the case so the case should be left a bit long with the first trimming. Hip | |||

P.S. To fire form use app. 13 gr. Bullseye, cover powder with Cream of Wheat or cornmeal and cap with toilet tissue. Point muzzle up and fire. Hip | |||

I wouldn't waste a primer on fire forming. The 6.5 shoulder is only .006 larger than a 308 at the same place. | |||

Size down from .308 to 6.5 bare minimum for a snug bolt close.. Rock on ________________________________________________ Maker of The Frankenstud Sling Keeper Proudly made in the USA Acepting all forms of payment | |||
