Dusty Stevens
Shiner
Dusty, just pulled the expander stem from the 243 die and the ball measured .241 as compared to the .225 ball measured from the 6 Dasher Redding die. But when I measured the length of the taper of the stem to the largest point (.241) it exceeded the length of the entire 6mm case by nearly .025. In short, when I put the 243 stem (.241 ball) in the 6br case it came up short of going into the neck as it bottomed out a quarter inch short of entry to the neck.
It was a hell-of-a thought though! Thanks!

It should look like this right? Change the silver part and keep the rod the same
