6-6.5x47L & 6.5x47L

[FFEMT]

Somebody please educate me. I'm starting two builds - First is a 6-6.5x47L, Second is a 6.5x47L. My question is, will I be able to reload both calibers with one redding comp bushing die set, by just changing out the bushings or will I need a separate set of dies for each? Thanx in advance.......Bob.

I built a 22-6.5x47L and used Redding 6.5 x 47 L Type S full length die and just used the the correct bushing size to accommodate the 22 neck size. I do not see that you would have any problem doing it for the 6x47L.

I stepped the neck size in 3 increments so I did not work the brass too hard on one pass.

Sounds good, Thanx for the response ........ Bob.

I use a 6.5x47 Lapua bushing die for a 6x47 Lapua. It works perfect.
