6.5mm RSAUM

[plunker20]

Travis over at TSCustoms is building me a new rifle in the 6.5 rsaum. and im looking for dies. ive been searching high and low on google and big for a set. I cant seem to find anyone that makes them. Is there someone that can make me some or is there a different way to reload them. any and all help would be greatly appreciated this is my first case that hasn't been a factory chambered round.

I think cooper creek ammo has them in stock .

I went over there and they load rounds for the 6.5 but they don't have dies that I can find im going to keep navigating the page but I didn't see anything

Pm me. I have a extra set of reading type s bushing dies with one bushing.

Call Redding, I'm sure I've seen 6.5 dies made by them, it would be a custom die, and heard they had halted custom production through this crunch, it will be just a reg set, not comp or bushing.

Looks like Pat uses 7saum S dies.

skyking I sent you a pm. thanks for the help guys. my next question is, are the velocities that much better than running a 260 Ackley?

Nope, the fatter case and extra 15gr of powder is there only to decrease magazine capacity and burn out throats quicker.

Just curious, what did he say were the lead times when he replied?

Do you have personal experiences with it to back up this statement?

 

[plunker20]

he didn't give me a lead time on the dies but he has brass in stock as of yesterday.
he just told me that he would put a set on back order for me

Holy shit dude...

It was sarcasm.

I was just curious since all of the 6.5Saum craze that turbo might have some experience with it and it was worth exploring

This. They don't list the dies on their sight per se. Send josha pm to get on the waiting list, and then when they become available, he will send you a link to buy them. easy peasy.

the other option is a set of FL "S" series rsaum dies, pull the expander ball, add the correct bushing in and rock the sizer. Then, you will need the 6.5 vld seating stem and you are in bidness.
