    Default 6.5Creedmoor to 6Creedmoor

    My buddy just got a 6creed. Outside of swapping a bushing die from 6.5 to 6, is there anything else that I need to be aware of? IE, neck thickness? Anyone doing this successfully? I have a pot load of 6.5brass that we can use.

    Might need to turn the necks, might not. If you can get a couple fired cases from his chamber, you can measure the loaded/unloaded necks before/after shooting. Load a few dummy rounds and measure the necks of the loaded ammo. Neck down a few of yours and make the same measurements. 6Creed chambers/reamers do not generally have a tight neck. If they do end up needing to be turned, might not show up until after a few firings. It's really more in the shoulder thickness than the neck, you might get a donut, and not the good kind. Good luck!
