I need a take-off (shot out one is fine)barrel in 6.5. I want to chamber it for my 6.5x55 IMP so I can mount on my Remington 700 action for fire-forming a bunch of brass. Contact Terry at 406/381-3672 or trapperz_dad  yahoo.com.

By time you've paid for a used barrel and had it installed you could pay for a hydroforming die from Hornady and save some trouble.
Never underestimate your ability to overestimate your ability.

I have a 6.5 x 55 Kreiger heavy varmint take off sitting out in the garage that was on my F-class gun. Pay shipping and it's yours.

Was not aware anyone was offering such a service commercially. Seems to be a super option. I had read where a machinist / gunsmith guy in Denmark had been doing pretty much exactly this to form 17 HH brass from 22 hornet when the 17 HH brass was in short supply. He seemed happy with his results. http://www.accurateshooter.com/technical-articles/hornadys-hydraulic-case-forming-dies/

I spun up one of the $100 green mountain blanks to form some brass....darn thing ended up being a winner.... ![[Linked Image]](http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z16/gyonemura/20140123_185555_zps90025eb7.jpg)
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.
