Making Dutch Mannlicher 6.5X53R Brass

[Indy650]

Has anyone ever made brass for the Dutch Mannlicher? I find different reports as to whether it's 6.5X53R or 6.5X53.5R and I've read it can be done using British 303 cases and possibly the schoenauer 6.5X53 cases. Curious if anyone has done this and how involved it is if it is a complicated resizing or fairly easy. Thanks in advance.

No problem, the search function is a little funky, unless you know exactly what you are looking for it comes back with nothing.

I've occasionally gone off the website and have better luck with a web browser. I use Duck-Duck-Go.

In the search string I specify Castboolits then what I'm looking for, I've had better luck that way then the internal search engine at times.
