Although I have been reloading 308 win match as well as 223 rem match for a few years now with good success, I am new to the 6.5G cartridge.
So how abouts any pointers from you veteran 6.5 guys on the reloading side of things!
Here is what I have purchased so far.
Hornady A-MAX 123gr 100ct
Hornady SST 129gr 100ct
Hornady unprimed brass 50ct
Hornady 2 piece die in 6.5G
Hornady #6 shell holder x2
1LB of IMR 8208 XBR
And I generally load with Varget, so I have a couple of lbs of that also.
And of course I have a couple thousand small rifle primers, mostly CCI
My press setup is a old school single stage RCBS Rock Chucker that my grandfather has used for 30 years and it is what I learned on. So as long as it running, Ill probably keep using it.
My current barrel is a AR-Stoner 18in mid-weight w/ 1 in 8 and 5R rifleing.
The gun will be used for 'yote and whitetail hunting, as well as some 600+ yd target shooting in the off season.
