    6mmBR Small Base Body die

    I know it's a long shot, but anyone have a Redding 6mmBR small base body die I can beg, borrow or rent?
    I have one on order but could be a while and I've a weeks hunting coming up ................

    Please PM if you can help. Thanks.

    Would a 308 family die work on just the base. Assuming you have a bump or FL die already. May be an easier find.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Good thought. A .308 small base die would probably work - but I don't have one of those either :-(

    I still may have one from my original 6mmBR. When I rebarreled the new chamber was different and I didn't need to use a SB die any more. I will have to do a wee search.
    Whereabouts are u m8?

    Thanks Zimmer. I'd appreciate if you could have a look. I'm Christchurch based.

    Could it be faster and similar priced to run a standard reamer up it as a thought?

    You're lucky, I was able to find it in my mess. For loan with postage at your cost.
