[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 817192, member: 5219"] Too bad Lapua doesn't make brass for all our chamberings. If they did it would be all I would buy. I always size the necks to be certain they are round and will have the neck tension I want to use. I have found the flash holes don't need to be touched. Do uniform primer pockets. If I know I am going to use Lapua brass I specify a no turn neck reamer. Have a 6mm-284 that uses 6.5-284 lapua brass. I used the custom reamer and an old 264 barrel to make a intermediary sizing die which helps neck the brass down with fewer failures than going right to the 6mm-284 FL die. An alternative would be to use a standard seater die for the in between step. just thought I'd add this though you may already know about it. [/QUOTE]
