[QUOTE="BearBow, post: 279370, member: 17500"] I'm building a new rifle on a Borden action/Krieger barrel....was going to try the very impressive 6.5x06 Ackley, but recently read alot about the 6.5x280 Ackley and want to try that instead....problem is I can't find any dies....RCBS or Redding; have found reamers....though that is another problem....the one i found is for a 6.5x280 Imp_RCBS...which is not an Ackley...it's a 30deg shoulder vice 40deg... bottom line i need to match reamer w/dies, and prefer a 40deg AI setup... Can anyone out there can help me....Seems like alot of work to shorten the case-making one step...284 to 264, vice 308 to 284 to 264....dont want to use 25-06 since that will thin the walls of the neck. Does anyone have any actual experience using both of these 2 calibers...any difference....theoretically should gain 2-4 grains in the 280AI brass...apx 4-5% Thanks... Brad, USN (ret) [/QUOTE]
