I went straight from 6.5 Grendel to 6mm ARC using my Hornady sizing die. No issues whatsoever. There isn’t a top on the inside of a Hornady die, per se, it’s a hollow tube. I’m wondering if you were hitting the decapping rod.
You already have a better sizing die in the Mighty Armory, but should someone else make the same attempt with a Hornady die…size first with the decapping rod/expander ball out of the die. Then trim to length, then run it through with the expanse ball in place.
Another recommendation is to anneal the Grendel brass prior to re-forming to 6mm ARC.
