The PRC die "problem"

Bullet central has made small base dies for 6.5 and 300 prc. From reports this has fixed all the Clicker problems. It sized my hornady brass at the web from 0.531 to 0.530. Use good lube and lots of it the first few near the base.
It has not fixed all the clicker problems. Especially on ADG brass and more than likely on Lapua, Peterson brass. @bowhunter1287 issue is not a clicker issue, it's a issue with brand new brass on its first firing. It's either a bolt PE issue or a barrel chamber issue.
The micron dies only sized my several times fired adg 0.0003 smaller than my rcbs matchmaster die. I was a bit disappointed especially for the price.
Did it resolve the clicker issue?
I never had any, chambers been hogged out with an oversized reamer.

I'm considering getting a Tikka T3x 6.5 PRC. So my goal is to fire some factory ammo and use the spent cases to reload.
I like the Hornady New Dimension die sets. Is the 6.5 PRC that problematic to reload?

Doesn't seem like hornady brass is an issue. I'm on 6x hornady and so far no major issues

Does anyone have an Alex Wheeler 300 PRC reamer I can borrow or rent? Would be much appreciated.
Similar experience here w/ Bergara 300 prc & Hornady. With medium loading, I've got 20 that had been loaded 7 times without issue. Still firm hold on primer also.

So I just received my proof prefit. I haven't had a chance to measure it but thinking forward what do I need to do to avoid problems??
You really won't know until you shoot it and after about 4-5 firings on the brass. After 4-5 firings is when most start seeing issues. I just got my 6.5PRC AW2 Reemer from JGS for my 6.5 but have not had time to make the mod yet.
