Andrew Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Brass supplies can be spotty but dies and bullets are easy to come up with. Brass can be made from 22-250 (ended up a tad short), 308, 260 etal. What gun are you considering getting?~Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nearly there Posted May 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'm toying with a few options but if I do go 6.5 creadmore it's going to be ruger precision.cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Good choice. My shooting partner has one. Unbelievably accurate with H4350 and a 142 Sierra MK. I have a RPR in 308 and the Ruger Predator in 6.5CM. All shoot well.~Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch308 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Bullets are readily available, cases not so much you have to grab them when you get the chance and they are expensive. I bought all my cases and dies from spud, he seems to have them in stock most of the time, I use h4350 in the 140's and varget in the 123' s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phaedra1106uk Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Adam, why do Lee need to get their act together? they've been making 6.5 Creredmoor dies for quite a while, I got 2 sets of them and a spare FLS die. http://www.titanreloading.com/rifle-reloading-dies/lee-ultimate-4-die-sets/lee-65-creedmoor-ultimate-rifle-4-die-set shipping to the UK takes about 7-9 days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

activeviii Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 I ordered my CM lee Dies from Titan on the Monday and they were on the door on Friday. Alond with the Lee trimmers and case holders. All in £44 that included the $14 delivery. Cases I use lapua 308 and turn them into creedmoor. Bullets I have hornady eld-m and Sierra tmk but it's a 6.5 so bullets are easy to get hold of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTLEADFARMER Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 I have a rpr and a predator both running the same load 142smk has been the best so far with 41.5 grains of H4350. Have run some 100 grain sierra varminters out of the predator when fire forming 22-250 brass half moa load. The 142smk has out performed everything else I've tried out of the RPR.nosler hornady have yet to try bergers have some just haven't tried because the matchkings shoot so damn good and they are cheaper. I've shot some factory Winchester 140 match, Hornady 140amax, and 143 ELDX all half moa. All my reloads are seated to factory spec with a Lee FCD (except fire form loads) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
