[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 952068, member: 25383"] yes you can, but the cases will come up a little short after fire forming. Not a big deal as the neck length is already long to start with. Personally, I'd cut down 30-06 or .270 or .280 brass and make my basic case as long as possible to make them come out as close to 6mm brass as possible. Anyway I used .257 brass to make 6mm cases, but they come in about .025" short. If your using a factory chamber (like Remington or Ruger), they are often reamed .05" too long at the end of the neck, so take full advantage of this if you can. That way the fire formed case will come in right on size after trimming. gary [/QUOTE]
