A few final questions

turnerdye1 · January 7, 2010, 04:31 PM

I was thinking about it and im going to end up going with turret style press and reloading my 9mm with it. ill probably just buy 7.62 in bulk.

this is is where im stumped. i have a Ruger M77 6mm rifle. i dont shoot it as much but i still want to have 100-200 rounds in stock. im having a hard time finding dies for it. i can find .243 but i was told that the 6mm is a little bit differant and the .243 wouldnt work. do they even make a 6mm die? another thing i cant seem to find are 6mm bullets. do they even make them? would it be more efficient to just buy the rounds instead of trying to reload them?

6mm Remington is not the same cartridge as .243 Winchester.
All major brands make the correct loading dies. Take your pick at:

6mm and .243 BULLETS are the same.
