[QUOTE="dirtball, post: 350660, member: 7344"] [FONT="Comic Sans MS"][SIZE="2"]Graywolf If you are set on a 6.5X280 Imp, and I am not arguing that, what I would do is to have a reamer made for you, it will only add about $160.00 to the cost of the build. First thing, buy some brass, decide what bullets you want to shoot, find some way to get a loaded round case neck diameter, then when you call the reamer maker you can get a reamer for YOUR build and you do not have to work around some one else's idea of a reamer. I rented a reamer once, NEVER again. Redding lists a 280 Ackley Imp 40* dies in there catalogue, I would order a "S" type neck bushing die and a body die, along with the appropriate size bushing(s) for your neck OD. Then I would order a Forster Micrometer Seater in 260 Rem, 6.5x57, or similar and have your smith ream out the sleeve in the die with your chamber reamer and you should be set. I am sure there are other ways to skin this cat, just a suggestion. Dave[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
