Dies anyone? - SvenGar58 - 03-16-2021
Ive been going by the local SW every day or two in hopes of acquiring some powder for my 6 ARC. Unfortunately none. However, I was able to acquire dies a while back which was something of a surprise. And now, there is even something of a surplus of HDY 108 gr ELD Match on the shelf (about 10 boxes). I actually have enough for loading once fired brass! I think we're experiencing a weird phenomenon as a result of there being only a few 6 ARC owners/shooters in a remote place. There may only be two or three in town.
In any event, I wanted to make an offer to the fraternity of 6mm ARC enthusiasts here. There is a set of HDY dies on the shelf at the local SW that has been there for about a week. I'd be willing to acquire them and forward them to another ARC shooter for cost + shipping. Things are so short now that I hate to see them sitting there waiting to find a home. First come, first served. Send me a PM and we can arrange the practicalities -- hopefully before they disappear.

I got a set last week from Optics Planet.
Currently have 3lbs of powder, but 6mm projectiles are scarce in my area. Found 1 box of Nosler partitions last week, but nothing else to be had that suits.

Probably not what you're looking for, but bullets nonetheless. Powder is my biggest problem. I am busy using up my factory ELD-Ms to make a pile of brass, and I have bullets and primers, but that last ingredient just isn't coming to a store near me.

Check Hodgdon's web site and see if a usable powder is in stock. An eight pound keg of H322 is available at time of this post.
The are backed up, it took over 2 weeks after my order of Lever was placed before they even would give me email that it had shipped.

While not plentiful by any means, i've managed to accumulate 3lbs of LeveRevolution. Grabbed what was available at two different LGS. Both stores said CFE223 disappears soon as it shows up.
