For me it is easier to form from 9.3x72R than the 38-55 as I have to turn the face of the rim or the rifle won't close(38-55 Rim is too thick).

To use the .257 bullets I can get away with just sizing the 9.3x72R formed brass in the 6.5x58R die. With the Bertram brass I have to neck size them in a 250 Sav die.

I need to run them through the 250 Sav die with a 260 expander ball for the .260 bullets it is a little undersized for the proper neck tension. In the 6.5 die they won't size down enough for the .260 expander ball to even touch the neck.


After the first shot the rest are just noise.
