I have 61 pieces of brass for sale for the 6.5 x 58R Sauer. I can sell to residents of Canada only, because of the restrictions on the export and import of components. This brass was formed from Canadian military .303 British, with headstamps: 1942, 1943, or 1944, DI Z. I took the following steps:
1. De-prime
2. Ream primer pocket to remove military crimp
3. De-burr flash hole, inside and outside
4. Lathe-turn rim to .500”
5. Lathe-turn base to .433”
6. Full-length resize in CH/4D sizer die
7. Polish in lathe to remove tooling marks
8. Neck-size in .257 Roberts die
9. Expand necks to .259” in CH/4D expander die
10. Anneal necks.
11. Polish in tumbler.
There are some oil dents and a few wrinkles on a few cases. These are purely cosmetic and will iron out upon firing. This is nice looking brass and is ready to load and shoot. My price is $5.00 Canadian per round, plus shipping. This price may seem steep, but you see the amount of work involved in producing it. The only commercial maker left is Bertram. Their brass would cost you close to $7.00 Cdn, landed, if you could find any in North America, which you won’t. I will sell in any quantity as long as you are willing to pay the shipping.
If interested, contact Ron Vella, at 905-723-7592, or mrrove@rogers.com.
Thank you.
