6x45mm Dies

[EOD Rob]

This is a shot in the dark, but I have a buddy that I finally talked into building a 6x45mm bolt rifle. One problem, no one has dies for it in stock anywhere.
Was just wondering if there might be someone out there that has a set sitting around that are no longer needed and would like to part with them. I'd let him use mine, but I'm in NC and he is in PA.

Thanks
Rob

If either of you run across 6mm old sarge dies, they are 6x45 dies. Mine are marked that way and I use them to load my 6x45

You can occasionally use Redding 223 bushing dies but some will not allow the necks to go through.

I use the redding 223 with the right bushing and never had any problems

I know of six dies. Two were no go.

For my 6x45 die setup, I use a .223 Remington Type-S Full Sizing Die Part# 77111 with a 6mm Redding #11246 Type-S tapered decapping Rod Assembly. Precision Reloading has both of them in stock.

I looked through the dies at shooters corner but he had no 6-45 dies at this time.

You can hone a 223 bushing die so the 6mm case will fit. Then just buy the correct bushing.

Yep that's the easy fix.

Thank all, to everyone that pitched in on this thread! My buddy found a nice set of dies that works for his needs! As I figured, the forum would come in clutch as it has many times before! Lord, these are some great and unselfish people. Please bless all of them!
