Anyone know of a Lee type sizer for 6.5mm?

Looking for a 265 to 266 sizer. Anyone know of a Lee type one?

Nope, that's a custom order. Id get ahold of Buckshot here on the board and see if he can help you out. He does outstanding work! Probably months faster than the Lee custom shop, too!

Or you can pick up a 243 pt and lap it out to the size you want. This is what I did.

I cent seem to find Buckshot

Will a resized 243 still seat GC fine? Seems the push rod would be too small

I didn't have a problem with coww, lf your shooting something real hard you might have to modify the push rod. The size of the rod can be increased by peening it with a hammer then filing it back flat.

Hm. Might have to research it.

What would open that up? A small hone?

Buckshot made one for me to load .351 WSL. Fast, reasonable and works great. I'd go that route long before I'd try to hone out a smaller one.

Sand paper wrapped around a small drill bit and spun in a drill. I started with 100 or 240 grit then when I got closer to size, 420 and finished it up with 1000 grit or steel wool. I thank I had about a hour, maybe a hour and a half getting it to size. Mine works great but if you go to far, you can't put metal back. When I got close to size, I started pushing boolits thru and checking the size, until I got to a point that the gas checks were just crimped on, for my smallest lyman mold.

The easy way is just keep asking until someone pops up with how to get in touch with Buckshot, he's highly spoken of. The thread below post number twelve, Buckshot, click on his name and send him a pm.

Got bored and tackled another issue. A lube cutter or as they used to be called, Kake Kutters. Looked and didn't see anything I wanted retail wise so I made my own. Took a 30-06 case and neck sized in my RCBS 7x57 die then took the dremel and cut out an opening for bullets to fall out of the case.

You can also use a nail with the head sized to the case neck, stick thru the drilled out primer pocket to push them back out.
