6.5 X 55 mm bullet sizer

[Pirate69]

Am I missing something? I am failing to find any Lee bullet sizers for the 6.5 X 55mm. I was about to pull the trigger on a mold and some gas checks when I discovered that there was not a Lee sizer available. Is a Lyman the only option?

Lee does not make one as a regular. You can order a custom but that is expensive. Buckshot (member here) can make one for ya from what i am told.
Have a good 'un, thecyberguy

Click here and PM him. His price is good too.

Lee will make you custom sizer dies for 25.00, mine took 10 days to arrive.

Buckshot is faster and does better quality in my opinion, but I've only bought several (including a .268 sizing die) from him so I am biased.

Then again, I like LEE products a lot as well.

I too have some Buckshot sizing dies both Lyman and Lee. You could not do better...................

Maximum bullet diameter is .575.

We need:

1. Payment of $29.50 ($25.00 + $4.50 processing fee)
2. Desired diameter to the factory

I ordered one from Lee a couple of months ago and it took about 4-5 weeks for a .378 sizer. However I keep thinking I should try one of those from Buckshot and I have a 6.5x55 on that is almost paid for at the local gun getting store.

+ a bunch for Buckshot. I had him make one for my 6.5x55's & couldn't be any more pleased with it, needed it to be 0.268 & it's dead on that. Very quick turn around time also. I will be getting some more from him in the near future, thanks again Rick.

Not only did I get a sizing die from Buckshot for less money than Lee, I got a great conversation with a lot of sage advice mixed in.
I vote for Buckshot.

Hey 6.5 mike,
What did your bore measure? The best I can measure is 0.265" for my rifle.
