Has anyone tried building a necked down 6.5 from a 7mmRem Mag? Results?
I've never heard of one so wondering why not. @Toby??

The dies are on eBay from time to time
Quite popular overseas
264 Win Mag already exists. No reason why necking down a 7mm Rem Mag wouldn't work.
i have the 264 win mag love it,Quote:

I have a .264winmag in my bullet collection, you should get one. I remember you saying about wanting a magnum 6.5
Go on build a 6.5x65RWS instead
Got any ballistic performance stats Mucko? Just basics like muzzle velocity and energy?Quote:

6.5 saum or WSM?
6.5's are Awsome but save your self some money and time and buy a 7mm rem mag mate,No fire forming no necking up or down and less chance of projectile shortage and no waiting around just buy a Sako Finlight or on a budget but one of those remington lr rigs for 1600.Just my thoughts.Quote:
