    6.5 mm X47 pressue question

    I am getting some mild ejector swipe on the brass with 37.3 grains of RL 15. Pretty good primer cratering also. I'm only about 700 ft above sea level. The ejector swipting is not every round but it does seem to polish the back of the brass on each shot. You can't feel any indintation from...

    Forster Full Length Competition Sizer die question

    Re: Forster Full Length Competition Sizer die ques Okay, I got you. Yes it should be engaging the inside diameter of the neck. Do you think that the difference in neck tension is anything to worry about?

    Forster Full Length Competition Sizer die question

    I am using this for my 6.5X47. I have developed a load based on the virgin Lapua brass. When I run the once fired brass through the die, the neck is quite a bit more narrow that the virgin brass. I'll have to put my micrometer on it to measure the differnce. I'm not getting any pressure...
