I would love to show in full but had to downsize everything but I think it is enough to see how to make these cases thanks again Gabe I will keep everyone posted as I make progress.glad to help
Gabe I uploaded a full version of that video 6mmx47 40° short.100 thousands if you can pull up I would appreciate thanks.glad to help
What case's are you making Tod kindler of small caliber news has some form dies that came from rcbs that pulls necks down gradually. I will get his number for you he can at least tell you were he gets them.Stan,
Thats what I use. I’m thinking I got a bad one. I have tried any and all combinations of lubing and techniques with no luck.
I necked them on down to 22 anyway, and after firing/trimming it made no negative difference in the finished product.
Thanks for the reply
Base to bottom of shoulder is 1.370 thousands neck length about .282. I hope that helps I can get better numbers tommorow.
From the very end of case is right at 1.370 from there to neck shoulder junction right at 1.484 then the neck is somewhere around.280 long making a overall length in the neighborhood of 1.765 longJust to make sure I understand correctly, that is 1.370 to the body shoulder junction?

I would assume you only loose. Loose barrel life and holding power for those longer bullets. But i dont know everything and i probably missed something from earlier in the thread.Sorry if this has been covered before. I understand the 6x47 part + 40 degree shoulder. What does cutting the case .100 shorter do (what do you gain from cutting it .100 short vs leaving it) ??

Thanks for your reply time will tell all you hit it on the nose looking for efficiency for the burn rate of different powders H 4350 being a good candidate I will keep all of you posted as I get opportunities to test I am definitely excited about what I am seeing.Gentlemen, hang on and see where Stan takes us. He is an intelligent fellow who loves R&D which is something you will benefit from if his hard work pays off. He is looking for efficiency from a case that has pretty much failed by comparison to the shorter cousins the BR improved versions. Stan shoots 1000 yd IBS and has done well. Tinkering is FUN in these winter months, I am seeing way to often on this site lately, reading posts from the half empty crowd. Some of us are from the half full.
Alex here some pics from left to right my 6mmbr Ackley 6mm dasher my 6mmx47 .100 thousands short 40° shoulder 3times fired an a new formed case an a straight 6.5x47 lapua case I think in warm temps H 4350 will shine an varget and Reloader15 will be great in cool temps an great case life look at expansion on case that is fired 3 times sizes very easy thanks for your question on this.Got a picture of it next to a dasher? I am assuming its a bit longer?
I ran it up yesterday 37.9 h4350 just to see if any issues none we will see after I screw my new barrel on just testing the water will see how she goes in the spring lolRun that baby up to pressure Stanley, curious to see if it can hang with my "BRA-BRO"
