    Benchmark in 6X45

    Getting ready to put a 6X45 bolt gun togeather, and since I have about ten pounds of BM on hand I'd like to use it up if I can. I see it listed in the reloading data I've found on-line with what looks like reasonable velocities. I understand that all barrels are different but am just curious to...

    6X45 Dies

    Re: 6X45 Dies Not sure what you mean. I'm wanting to use a 223 "Bushing Die". The body never changes, but the "Neck Bushings" are interchangable from 17cal to 338. Or am I missing something here? Isn't a 6X45 simply a 223 case necked up to 6mm? Thanks

    Hello all. First post, so I hope this is in the right place. Hate to get smacked down before I get started. Anyway,,,, here's my question. Can I use 223 bushing dies for the 6X45? (Redding Type S) Seems to me that as long as I swap the bushing and expander stem to the appropriate size it...
