I have both 7 saum and 6.5 saum rifles.

I really like bullet central micron sizing dies.

They make a 300 saum and 6.5 saum bushing die.

Could i use the 300 saum die to size both my 7 and 6.5 saums with different bushings obviously?

Would this be wise or is it just better to get caliber specific dies?

My concern would be the 300 saum die neck opening being larger than the both, and not providing contact on the whole shoulder of the brass.

What say you?
 
It shouldn't be a problem. Quite a few guys are using 7 saum dies for their 6.5's, (myself included) simply because it's easier to find 7 dies. The neck opening where the bushing sets is going to be the same on the 300 saum die as it is on a 7 saum die since all bushings are the same OD. So there really isn't any difference between a 6.5,7 and 300 saum bushing die except for what bushing you put into it.
