Dear all; I need (perhaps want is a better word) to get my hands on some 6.5 carcano and some 6.5 arisaka ammunition and or components. Any suggestions on whom I should check in with?
Thanks in advance for your response.

If you Google Prvi Partizan 6.5 Carcano, you should find a couple of other Cdn stores that stock it. Arisaka is getting hard to find.

I just picked up a minty first year Winchester 670 -105xxx- now on the hunt for non existent .225WCF brass or ammo too! Winchester still makes 225 Win, but it is only made once or twice a year. I found they don't like to answer emails, unless it concerns a safety issue. They do answer letters. I would ask them when the next run is going to happen. You may get lucky and receive a response.

Thanks for the encouragement Steve. I was told it might be 4-5 yrs that the next run would happen. I'll be watching for it in my travels.

I don't know about in Canada, but Hornady makes or made it.

Another useful contact is Henry at Budget Shooter Supply in Surrey BC. He can often source stuff out of the US. Very good guy to deal with, He lists Carcano brass and also 6.5 X 51R Japanese (= Arisaka?)

Good to hear. Where did you end up sourcing the brass?
