[QUOTE="436, post: 545809, member: 16609"] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Well since you asked; I think I’d start with new .270 Wby Mag brass ... Find a good neck sizer die only in 6.5mm that you can resize the neck with, the ability too bump the shoulder at the junction of the neck and shoulder just enough too help the cause. Be sure the neck sizer has a good elliptical tapered expander ball.
