6 PRC reloading

[Titanmoose]

How are folks making a modified case for the 6 PRC? I assume a mandrel on the higher end of the caliber or the bottom of the next up but I’m unsure. I assume necking down a 6.5 Hornady modified case then a mandrel but curious what works. Would prefer not to buy another mandrel for 1 use

No need to make a modified case. I disassemble the bolt and remove the plunger, then seat a bullet long and slowly start seating the bullet down till there is no resistance when closing the bolt. Here’s a link to Alex Wheeler web site with a video. Look for finding your lands video
