You may well find that case reload life for 6.5 jap is less than you might expect, due to the need to regularly full length size brass to remove the bulge.īulged cases were not a problem for Jap ammo, it was only meant to be fired the once!įWIW, Type 38's never had chrome lined barrels, only early to mid war Type 99's.

I use PPU brass and full length size my cases with Lee dies with no issues, just remember to check the length after sizing and trim accordingly if needed.Īlso, make sure to carefully inspect each case after firing for tell-tale signs of damage before reloading. At this rate it looks like I may get maybe two firings from my brass.Any suggestions?Ī bulged case is normal with the 6.5x50 jap cartridge, it's to do with the way the cartridge is supported by the bolt when it goes into battery.Īs long as the case extracts ok after firing then that's normal. What to do? Is there another die set I can use as an intermediate step? I'm not comfortable with the way it's going, although I have loaded and shot some. I can FL size, but once again a considerable amount of brass is being "shaved" before it is fully sized. I tried partial sizing, but the cases won't chamber unless they are full length sized. Upon closer examination, the cases have a pronounced bulge in the area above the web. Upon sizing, the size die is scraping brass right above the web of the case. Here's my problem: I bought some Lee dies for it so I can reload for it and shoot cast out of it. I have shot a few boxes of factory ammunition through it with no issues, very accurate and fun to shoot. The metal is in very good condition though with a good bore.

The stock has the been there, done that look. I inherited my Grandfather's 6.5 Arisaka, it was a WWII bring-back.
