I BELIEVE THE SINCLAIR MAN MAY BE MISTAKEN. I HAD TO TURN THE NECKS OF THE 284 BRASS BUT THE NORMA BRASS WILL CHAMBER AS IS ( I SUPPOSE) - I TURN THEM ALL. BEEN SHOOTING THIS BABY 4 YRS. | ||

I do have to turn the Norma brass to fit my chamber, but the Lapua brass seems to work without turning, tight, but it works. | |||

there is difference in BASE dia Lapua and Norma have bigger case diameter ( hornady I don't know ) that original 284 Win case if you shoot Win case in Norma/Lapua chamber that work but after few shoot you loos primer by too much case expansion . neck is another story BR match chamber have a neck in .290 or 0.291 you need to make neck turning match chamber have a neck in 0.295 you can use case with you a neck cleaning regular chamber have a neck in 0.300 best for hunting is to use the chamber know as 6.5/284 Norma factory chamber ( available from PPG in Oregon )or if you want you can use JGS 6.5/284 with regular Win case and use the RCBS set of die . good shooting DAN TEC | |||

Hey' I was going to build a 6.5-.284,but the brass problem,made me go to a 6.5-06 Imp.Don't have to worry about the supply drying up. 1geejay www.shooting-hunting.com | ||

Thanks for the feedback guys. I likely have a standard 6.5x284 chamber. I just got some 284 brass & it chambers fine. I hope the Hornady brass works also. Nonetheless, I'm glad I finally got a 6.5x284 and it will be my standard rifle for this season. Does anyone have any good loads to share? Regards, Talyn | ||
