[QUOTE="7mmRHB, post: 775442, member: 3584"] 65WSM, Steve made the finish sizing die with a resize reamer and a Newlon die blank. It is a bushing die.The seating die is a Forster Ultra seater reamed with the finish reamer. The brass is hard, and slow to make as Steve said. There is about 33 hrs work per 100 pcs to get them to the fire form stage. I don't think there's anyone that would be willing to pay $135 for new6.5x284 Lapua brass plus 33 hrs of labor costs for enough brass to do a build !! I also can't afford to spend that many hrs on brass when there is a ton of work to be done in the shop!! We're in the process of figuring out a way to speed up the production of brass to the point that we can offer it to the public in the form of us doing the complete build. I doubt we will be renting out the reamers and just selling brass.----- RHB [/QUOTE]
