    6.5x47 Lapua case neck tension question.


    I am in the process of building a 6.5x47 Lapua and just got a Forster die set. I have a 6mm BR and I was able to find a lot of information about neck tension for the cases. I was unable thus far to locate much data on neck tension for the 6.5x47 Lapua and I am wondering if any of you could steer me in the right direction regarding neck tension. For instance I sent my 6mm BR sizing die to Forster to have it honed to 0.266 neck tension which works awesome. I am looking for something comparable. Thank you guys and if you read this Happy Easter to you and yours.
