The more I read about loading and shooting 6.5mm wildcats, the more appealing a 270 becomes.
The more you read about it?
Yes, the more I read about it. Is there something about that sentence that astounds you?
No, not at all. The more I read about old-timers killing elephants with a 7X57, the more I think it's the perfect elephant cartridge.
Seriously though, if you're contemplating a 6.5-06, there's not much to it, as far as "wildcatting." Buy a die set, and either neck up .25-06 brass with a single pass of the expander ball, or neck down .270 brass and then trim it back to length. It's pretty simple.
