    .264 price and options

    Here is a cost break down of both what I deem necessary and what additional upgrades I have to offer to make 6.5mm cal bullets from various jacket materials using my dies.

    I recommend using a Lee Classic Cast press with my BTSniper premium dies. I offer an improved version of the Lee Classic Cast press that I have modified specifically to handle the pressures of swaging. This press has modified linkages that produce over twice the leverage of the stock press and comes with a new threaded ram and auto eject set up.

    Should the customer already have the Lee Classic Cast press all that is needed is my auto eject set up and the press will be good to go for use with my dies.


    BTSniper Premium 6.5mm Swage Dies



    Standard three die set

    $699.00 point form die (available in 7.5 or 11s ogive)
    $499.00 core seat die
    $549.00 core bleed die
    $207.00 three threaded base punches

    $1954.00




    Additional addons or upgrades.


    Eleven cavity core mold



    $249.00



    BTSniper Improved Lee Swage Press



    $399.00



    Auto Eject for customer that already has Lee Classic press



    $225.00



    Auto Eject System for press with 1" ram



    $225.00



    Traditional 9 degree Boat tail



    $349.00 Boat tail base punch for point form die
    $50.00 upgrade to Boat tail core seat die

    $399.00



    5.7x28 for .264 cal jackets




    30 cal bullet shown above, I have made excellent 6.5mm bullets from scrap 5.7 brass because I was able to use the power of a hydraulic press but I feel the 5.7 brass would make an even better 7mm jacket able to be drawn down and swaged in my Lee Swage press. An even better option would be to use the new 17WSM rim fire brass. This brass is already very close to the 7mm diameter needed to make perfect bullet with.



    $199.00 neck expander for 5.7 brass
    $675.00 draw dies to go from .316-.264 with the 5.7 brass
    $69.00 draw die push threw base punch

    $943.00





    Draw down available 30 cal jackets for 6.5mm jackets....

    This would be a great option and very easy.

    $225.00 draw die
    $69.00 push threw base punch

    $294.00



    22mag/17HMR jackets

    A bit of a stretch to get 22mag brass to swage up to 6.5mm but it is possible.



    $225.00 derim die
    $69.00 derim die base punch

    $294.00




    Standard reloading press options


    Shell holder style base punch



    $89.00 ea.

    *same price as listed above for boat tail options

    Updated the available ogives I have to offer for 6.5mm point form dies.

    I have a 7.5s ogive that matches the Nosler 140 grain custom comp bullets

    and

    an 11s ogive that matches the Sierra 142 grain Match King profile.

    Swage on!
