[QUOTE="L.Sherm, post: 2068760, member: 102083"] Don't go the unturned route on a 6.5x06AI i can tell you from experience it won't be as accurate as say a .296 chamber neck been there done that on a 6.5x300wsm. Unturned you will be about .296-.297 loaded round with in my opinion is way to hard to control neck tension on brass. Its why just about all 6.5 stuff runs a .292 or smaller loaded round. I put together a 6.5x06AI for my nephew running 06 Lapua brass and its one of the most accurate hunting rifles I've been around. 140 Berger at 3150 in a 26" with H1000 he loves it. The reamer is set up for an O.A.L of 3.43 with the boatail bearing surface at the neck shoulder junction. If you go this route p.m. me we could probably work something out on my reamer and I can neck down the brass with my forming dies. [/QUOTE]
