[QUOTE="M1A1ABRAMS, post: 2727902, member: 123811"] I know I am probably going backwards with this cartridge, lol. But I have a factory rifle & would like to keep it that way. And just looking for better options in brass. Seeing how there is only Nosler Brass available these days, not much. And the reviews on Nosler brass is somewhat iffy. I can buy the Lapua & Peterson in 6x47 for the same cost. Give or take a penny. It will just need to be necked down. So a simple explanation on the process & any tips would be appreciated. Or why I should not adventure into it. I do have some older Rem brass w/ 1 or two firings. I also know you can use 204 Ruger brass. I don't think this should be a hard task. But as I said I never downsized a cartridge. I am new to reloading for anyone new to the forum that doesn't know this already. Is the L or P brass harder or easier to work ? What dies should I have ? Besides RCBS in 222 Rem & 222 Rem Mag. Will necks need turned after doing this ? Keep brass separated- headstamp [/QUOTE]
