[ARCHIVED THREAD] - 6.8

Posted: 3/28/2013 5:33:31 AM EDT

Am I correct in assuming a .40s&w shellplate will work with the 6.8,

ETA: looks like maybe the 7.62x39 might also work ?
ETA:Dillon rep said to use the 7.62x39 # A shellplate on the 1050

ETA: having trouble necking down to 6mm, was told that a .285 and .267 bushing was what I needed but wasting way to much brass on the .267 bushing , like it's pinching on the neck and tearing a piece off , get the same if I pull the expander. Brass is well lubed and new

I've heard of people using it. Not sure how sloppy the fit would be though.

On my Dillon I use the 40 shell plate for the 6.8, works great.

After 58 minutes on hold, Dillon rep said to use the 7.62x39 # A shellplate on the 1050, also need 1 item to finish conversion and said it will ship today, guess I need to get necking brass down for next week

Just checked mine - it's a little sloppier than the 6.8 but looks like it would work OK.
