New to 6-ARC

[KMW 1954]

There seems to often be a “belt” formed when FL sizing. Not sure if it happens to bolt gun or not.

Using Lee dies to fl size 6ARC and 6.5 Grendel to a 6ARC bolt through a Shilen barrel and haven't seen the Belt develop. Not with Hornady or Starline brass.

Glad to hear you all are not having the belt issue. For those that are wondering, Johnny Reloading Bench YouTube channel has a video showing this phenomenon

Can't you just load it with PPC dies?

There is not a lot of difference in the two cartridges, but still there are differences. With that, you would essentially be fire forming you cases after every reload is all.

Hornady basically has done what Sako did with the USA version of the 6 PPC. Hopefully Hornady keeps producing the ammunition, unlike Sako who stopped selling the ammunition in the states . Its nice to be able to buy ammo when you don't have time to handload or are just in a lazy mood.
