An experienced shooter wouldn't use a 6.5 bushing die to go from 6.5 to .22 because the bushing will not the size the neck all the way down to the shoulder junction when it gets to .22 caliber. There's nothing easier than using Lapua 22-250 brass and blowing it out, and using a standard 22-250 AI full length die to resize. 90 gr. bullets will stabilize in a 1-8" twist @ 2900 fps. If I were to build a barrel for 95's, I would use a 1-7", but not any faster.
