Making 6MM Creedmoor out of 6.5 Lapua Creedmoor brass.....

[Raptor]

I just got my rifle rebarreled to a 6MM Creedmoor. I have some new 6.5 Lapua Creedmoor brass. Is there any problem with running it into my 6.5 Creedmoor "Bushing" sizing die with a 6MM busing in place of the 6.5 bushing?? I can't see any reason why it won't work. I know the 6MM case is about .017 shorter and I will be trimming and "Cleaning up" the neck by neck turning them. So anything I am overlooking here??? Thanks Guys!!!

6.5 and 6mm are the same length, no neck turning required, reform and load em up.

Depending on the thickness of your necks you'll use a 270 or a 271 bushing if your necks are more than .015".
