forester bushing bump die

[C. Collins]

I am having a straight 284 built. I see that forester does not make a bushing bump die for the 284. Can I use a bushing for the 284 in a 6.5x284 bushing bump die and have it work for the 284? Thanks for your advice.

I have called Forster a few times, each time I got a very helpful polite person who was willing to figure out how to get stuff to work.

Just for you chef I took a 6.5x284 and placed it into the die with no bushing.... I'm going to say that forster will tell you that the neck portion will need to be opened up to accommodate it's use for a straight 284.
