6mm ppc brass

[ecgate]

Wondering how well it works to form 7.62x39 into 6mm ppc. Just got  a 6mm ppc and was searching for ways to get brass at a resonable price. Any info will help thanks.

You can do it but won't get the accuracy level that using Laupa will give.  Not sure how much a form die cost  you, normally the (7.63x39) has a large primer pocket vs the small for the ppc and another problem if your shooting a tight neck rifle.

Bruno's shooting supply every so often get some factory 6ppc made by Norma

There still some Sako 6ppc and 22ppc brass that was the brass made for those single shot 6/22ppc that Sako sold and you see that come up on 6Br and the benchrest site for sale every so often.

Thanks Roper, thats what I thought but its allways better to hear it from someone else too.

I would just bite the bullet ($$$) and get some Lapua cases. If you have a nice tight chamber and neck size it will last you almost forever with accuracy loads. Just don't try to make it into a 6 BR or a 243 Win and you will get great case life.
