Seating die for 26-06

[mgrunloh]

Got a buddy with a 25-06, I am going to load some 75gr vmax for him to kill some coyotes.

I currently have a type s Redding body die that I'm fairly sure I can use as a body die with the correct bushing. My question is can I successfully seat 25-06 with a 30-06 seating die? Or do I need to buy a seating die?

Your 30-06 seater will work just fine.......in before the concentricity crowd.

Or you could just buy a 25 cal. stem for 20- 25 bucks. That's what the concentricity crowd will tell you. if the 30 works hair on ya.

You guys covered it, but I bet this goes two or three pages..

Just don't shoot that 25-06 ammo in your 30-06, it will come out as a 30-06 and then you'll be really confused…..LOL!

Cheers.

26-06 is the 6.5-06 cartridge.
