I had a very nice Mauser TypeA in 6.5 Portuguese and, although I never shot the rifle, I was able to take 7x57 brass and use my 6.5 Dutch dies to neck and set the shoulder to chamber with reasonable bolt closure resistance so I think that fire forming would be quite feasible.
Brass may end up a tiny bit short but should work just fine.

got my 6,5x57 die set in an internet auction for 25 euro
if you get such a die set cheap - I would cut it mm for mm until the case fits into the chamber. must be fine for bullet seting out of the box.

6,5x58


6,5x57

Thank you for the helpful advice.

Best
