6 Creedmoor to 6XC Brass?

[vonbalkenbush]

Has anyone taken George's new 6 Creedmoor brass and sized it in a 6XC die and then shot it in a 6XC? I don't know why there would be a problem with this? If someone could chime in with experience, I'd appreciate it.

That is a long way to push a shoulder back with no where for the brass to go.

Well, it only .020" longer than the 6XC, you guys really think that's too much for a sizing die to handle?

Like GG said, where will the brass go?

Why not just use 22-250 brass? It is way less expensive and works great. Fire forming loads shoot great in mine and they feed from a magazine relatively well. Seems to me that is a far better option.

Huh?.... Well at least I'm getting a few opinions on the topic.

I would personally just use 22-250 brass and fireform them. I use Win 22-250 brass and it works great for that. Either way you are going to have a fireforming process unless you purchase the norma 6xc brass.
