6.5mm Creedmoor dies

[HotIce]

Is Hornady the only choice?
They seem to have only FL dies, and I'm not able to find Redding S or Lee Collet dies for 6.5mm CM.

Last I checked Hornady is the only choice for dies. Contact Rob1 he knows a lot about the Creedmoor.

My Internet searches returned no success, besides the Hornady FL dies.
I guess I'll have to FL the brass every time, until the situation eventually changes.

At looking on Redding's website, they will make custom dies. For a price of course.

Oh, nice!
A tad pricey, but at least there is an option. Will email Redding ...

Hornady offers a bushing neck size die if you go look at their site under matchgrade dies. It's part number 544655. 6.5 Creedmoor match dies Search with that part number and you should be able to find them. Creedmoor Sports should stock them.

I use the standard FL size dies and they work great.

Thanks, I did not notice it (mainly because I was searching into my usual online retail stores).
I don't seem to be able to find any of the online stores I'm aware of, that carries those.
Will ping Hornady.

I use the standard dies as well, I did add the microseater on the seating die and they work beautifully

I had checked them too. Everyone seem to carry the standard set, but no match set.

The <span style="font-weight: bold">Match Set</span>?
If yes, they don't list them in their web site. Will ping them via email ...

They do. Click on the dies, and there is a pull-down menu that lets you select the match set.

Ouch, you're right. Ordered!
Pretty bad user interface though
