I've got Hornady's full length 6mm CM die set, but I'd like to neck size only for my bolt gun. Would a 6.5CM Redding S-Type neck sizer die with 6mm bushings work? Or for that matter would a 308 neck sizer with 6mm bushings work? Also, would a 6.5CM body die work to bump the shoulder back on the 6mm?

Is anybody reloading 6mm CM on something other than the Hornady set?
 
I dont see why the 6.5CM neck sizing only wouldnt work for just neck sizing. Dont know if a 308 die would work, though. 6.5CM body die should bump the shoulder back, only difference is the neck size.
 
My Hornady 308 Custom NS die does size the 6CM neck, but not the entire neck, comes about .020" short, suppose it would work just so you could seat a bullet, who knows how it would fit in your chamber like that.
