I doubt it would be much different resizing to 6.5-06, though you might need to trim to length, especially if you start with 270 brass.
Or, just to be different, you could go with a 6.5-270, or, 6.5-280.....
I think you want the making-brass part of it to be as simple as just resizing a parent case, right?
I really want to avoid brass making. I know how to do it and have done a lot of it, but I prefer to avoid it. A main reason being head stamps and safety. Honestly, if I were going to make brass, this build would be a 6mm-06AI. I would build 2 barrels while set up, so when the first shot out I could just screw the next one on.
