[QUOTE="grry10, post: 2489989, member: 35864"] I have an 6.5-06 Ackley that I love. When I built it I was flush with 30-06 brass so that is what I used and still use. When you neck down brass the wall of neck is thick, so I bought a .262'' inside neck reamer from Forster. After reaming the necks I trim them to length. To fireform them I use the cream-of-wheat method (magnum pistol primer, Bullseye pistol powder, cream of wheat, and a 1/4 of a sheet of toilet paper). I've never lost a case using this method and it isn't wasting bullets or shortening barrel life. Your barrel is dirty after but it cleans up easily. [/QUOTE]
