[QUOTE="Lineman, post: 3873903, member: 2498"] So some advice to those who decide to go with this caliber. Yes you form the case from 6.5 Creedmoor which is .264, .338 is a big jump. First thing I recommend is to at least size up to .308 before going to .338. Ive had some PMs about sizing; I run all my brass thru a .308 expander, trim and then size. Your 6.5 Creedmoor case will look this. I am trimming to 1.645 instead of 1.685 for a few pieces to see how much stretch I get on the first firing. [ATTACH type="full"]308934[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
