Hey folks, whats the best way to make 35 Whelen brass out of 30-06 brass? Also, what would I need to accomplish such a feat?

Get a 35 Whelen die set with a tapered expander ball such as made by Hornady. Run new 30-06 brass into the die with the inside of the necks lubed with Imperial sizing die wax. Do this slowly. You will be able to feel when the expansion is happening. You are aware I assume that 35 Whelan brass is available new???

make sure to trim to length/measure
and champher the mouth of the cases and you should be fine.

The ONE Main Rule with reloading is:

Every step is an inspection step. Never handle a case, or shell without inspecting it. Just a glance is fine, but, look them over all the time. It's amazing what you can find.

Thanks for the help, I was looking on several sites I usually order my brass from, but they don't have ANY, heck midwayusa says its unavailable and a seasonal item.

I have Lee dies, and ran a lubed 30-06 case into the sizing die but it don't end up looking like Whelen brass.

Just buy RCBS Full length die and resize 30-06 brass as normal.....not difficult.
