[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1819113, member: 26227"] HuntOregon, I knew I had seen that before. you are right it is not a lube issue. this is a forming process problem. Do you have some old 30-06 brass to form 6.5-06 AI? if you push any 23 Degree shoulder case through an AI die it will make those ripples and they most likely will not come out without many firings. if have any 30-06 or 270 Win; you will find that this issue transcends lube. this is trying to setting a shoulder and reforming the brass at the same time. what you experiencing is 3 issues combined. the necks are stretching making excess brass on the shoulder (making it ripple badly), you most likely did not anneal the brass before this reforming, you are AI sizing a convential brass. you are asking the brass to do too much in one process. #1 is you are using 25-06 brass. use 30-06 or 270 win brass and start with a 6.5-06 23 degree shoulder die then fire form into 6.5-06AI #2 try going from 30-06 to 270 win, to 6.5-06 then fire form them to 6.5-06 AI.
