What kind of dies are you using? What press are you using.Are you just full length sizing the 6.5x284 down to 6x284.I have done it with redding full length dies in one step and had no problems.Is your expander spindle bent.Do you lube the inside of the neck.Give us all the imfo you can and we can help you through this.

Are you getting a bent neck or a dent in the neck or shoulder area?

540e22,
Where did you go? you ask a question and haven't been back. Jon and I both have 6.5*284's and I have a 6*284 also we could probably help you with a little more info.
