6BR Seating.

[Nick Caprinolo]

Just built this rifle. I like to test seating depth at the range using a wilson micrometer die. I don't have one but do have a 30 BR Wilson die. I have tested it on the 6BR and it seems to work. Both cases are the same except the 30BR has a wider mouth which allows the 6BR to fit.

I have a set of Redding Competition dies with the Micrometer seating die but of course it won't work in a Arbor Press which is what I use at the range. I would of course seat the bullets at home using the Redding die all to the same length and adjust at the range.

Question is will it work in a precision manner?

I don't see why not, as long as your neck tension isn't so tight, then you may deform the copper jacket, since you are putting pressure abive the ogive.

Just verify tested best CBTO of each round.

Unsupported neck and the wrong seating steam.
