[QUOTE="03Rick, post: 909896, member: 31431"] I played with the same Idea before going to the 6.5 Osprey. I found that it was easier to buy 30 Newton brass from Buffalo Arms or Cap Tech Int. and neck down to 6.5 and improve to 0.015" taper with a 35 deg. shoulder and a 0.260 neck length. You will still get the same powder cap. as a 6.5 or 7mm STW, with a case length of only 2.52" allowing room for the long 140 and 160 grain bullets. To form the neck only requires an intermediat 7mm Collete and then right into the 6.5 for loading. Either way good luck with your project. [/QUOTE]
