.264 LBC

[Hawk45]

I know that 6.5Grendel will work in a .264LBC, but if using a .264LBC chamber, would it be best to use .264LBC dies or would 6.5 Grendel be just as good. I'd prefer to use Redding dies, but they only make for the 6.5, and only found RCBS basic dies for the .264LBC.

Which way would you go?

Re: .264 LBC

Use the 6.5 Grendel dies; there is no difference between the two cartridges; only the chamber. From my understanding, the 264 LBC has a tighter neck in bolt action rifles, and the same neck in semi-autos. I use Hornady's dies in Grendel for my .264 LBC and haven't had any issues.
