[QUOTE="IHFarmer07, post: 2261842, member: 75397"] I just ordered a Hornady custom die for the 6.5prc with a base dimension of .528” , virgin Gunwerks brass is .529 I believe and hopefully it won’t crack either. Ben also said that he seen more issues coming from guy’s like yourself sizing larger caliber ammo and so with that, that brass is hard telling much thicker than the prc brass and on top of that, a smaller overall diameter……I also had a light bulb idea last night that maybe what I will do is see if I have room for another die collar to squeeze the base of the die to keep from cracking, I reload from a coax…..😬🤷🏻♂️ [/QUOTE]
