[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 714773, member: 25383"] that is correct. Just use a standard bushing die, and bring the neck down to about .295 for starters. But you may want to also get a .295 and a .294 bushing. Others can tell you almost exactly what bushing you need to do this. The WSM case seems to have a neck wall of .018" ( seems a little thick), and with the 6.5mm bullet you probably want to start out with an I.D. of about .261" for .003" bullet tension. Sometimes the bullet may want .004" and other times you can get by with .002". gary [/QUOTE]
