6 prc or 22 prc ?

Necking down is not an issue at all, takes a whole 30 seconds extra per case, once. For me and couple buddies shooting 6 prc a redding type s bushing die with .271 bushing and lapua brass is an easy one step neck down, I use imperial dry graphite to lube the neck. After running it through the die there will be a flair at the case mouth, running a .242 mandrel through it fixes that and your good to go in two handle pulls of the press. Very quick and simple. If your having a flare at the neck shoulder junction that is interfering with chambering or giving a stiff bolt close thread your die down until that is resolved, usually another 1/2 - 3/4 turn. I use 21st century mandrels and dies but there are lots of options. Any questions I'm happy to try to help. Been a fun project and really liking this gun, seems to be a real sweet spot in recoil and terminal performance.
What length are you trimming your 6prc brass to?

What’s max charge of n565? PM me if preferred.
I am running n565 with 88eld

45. Using Vhits data and I think that's .1 over what they call for.
Their 90 grain Berger data calls for like 45.5 maybe? But I think the eldm and TMK are similar in shape. Don't want to push things. It's just easier for my tism to remember 45 vs 44.9.
