[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1057962, member: 5219"] I just sold the RCBS die set that would take 7 x 57 down to 257 Roberts and then to 6mm Rem. It is out there and they are proud of it. While I now use 6.5-284 Lapua brass to make 6mm-284, I made a form die to neck down 284 win. I took a piece of old 264 win mag barrel and threaded it 7/8-14. Then used the 6mm-284 chamber reamer. Then I sanded and polished this die. It is just the right size to transition part way towards 6mm. I am sure the same thing could be done with a 6mm Rem AI reamer. Pacific Tool and Gauge sells the die blanks all knurled and threaded with a specific pilot hole for around $20: [url=http://shop.pacifictoolandgauge.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=310_67]Reloading Tools : Pacific Tool and Gauge, Inc - StoreFront Home, Redefining Quality in Manufacturing[/url] [/QUOTE]
