Good words there @Wingman, it's a 300yrd round and no more. I've treated it exactly the same and haven't got myself into trouble sticking to the self imposed rule when used on goats.

How are you getting on with dies? I did post earlier that you can make a FL sizer from 223 bushing type dies easy enough. Redding do not list a 6x45 in their S Type, so I made one myself and it works a treat with the .263 bushing for my brass.
