[demolitionman]

I got the good news, my 6.5 Creed will be in my hands in a few weeks. It's at the distributor and won't be long. That being said, I now need to find some CREEDMOOR DIES. Does anyone know where they may be instock online?

Thanks. Sorry for posting this useless thread. I apologize, Mods, feel free delete if I'm in the wrong in starting a thread discussion for such a topic.
THANKS SNIPERSHIDE!

Here's a couple, navigate around and find more. I saw some advice about Hornady building these dies for their brass. I call BS.

Try Creedmoor shooting Sports (Google the URL) They invented the round and have supplies. I bought mine their two weeks ago. I heard they are moving their co. out of Southern California (and who could blame them.... Palosi, Boxer, Feinstein) . So they be be out of commission for a little while but maybe not. They had everything I needed including brass.

I tried them yesterday. No 6.5 creed dies were in stock.

Thanks. I placed my order through Gunstop on Monday night. It is already in transit to be delivered on Saturday! That's great service there! I figured it would be like everything else, 4 weeks to a few months for one reason or another. I'm really pleased with Gunstop. Very fast shipping concerning the current political climate.
Thank you Milo, I will shop Gunstop a lot more now.

I apologize, but I'm very new to this whole reloading thing. I have a 6.5 Creedmoor as well and I have heard people tell me that you want to get a completely separate die for crimping. Problem is, I can't find one for that round. Is that accurate information or are they blowing smoke?

I don't know of anyone that is crimping 6.5 Creedmoor. There is no reason to crimp unless you are shooting a gas gun (AR). If you do want to crimp, I would recommend a separate Lee Factory Crimp Die because it is less sensitive to case length variation.

I just picked up a set of Whidden FL bushing dies with micro seater last week from Midway.

Do you think the Whidden dies are worth the added cost over the less expensive dies (e.g. Hornady bushing die sets)?
