      Redding makes a full length size die with a changeable neck bushing, that is what I use.
      Unless you are running it in a bolt gun, you will need to full length resize to make sure it
      will chamber in an AR.

        You should be able to get a universal neck size die with appropriate inserts for getting the neck tension you want for your 6.5 caliber bullets.

        Alternatively, a 6.5 PPC neck-size die can work if one is careful to set the die so the neck is the only thing touched at the top of the stroke.

          Thanks guys!
          I use a small Sako bolt action rifle and find FL sizing/ lubing to be a hassle.

            'Been there, done that. Yes neck sizing is a lot nicer for the bolt and Encore!

              Just ordered a Hornady 6.5 Short neck die http://www.hornady.com/store/6.5mm-S...e-.264-1-Each/ to use in the press. But Wilsons are still very handy, in fact I've just ordered some for the 6.5 GAP 4S. Sad thing there was 50 cases cost twice the cost of dies.
