Wanted: 6.5x53R (.265 Mannlicher) dies, cases and clips
#347368 - 30/11/20 09:37 PM

I have just bought a Holland & Holland marketed Steyr 1893 sporter in 6.5x53R or, as the British would describe it, .265 Mannlicher. I need dies, cases and en-bloc clips for this rifle. Anyone have any of these lying around and in need of a new home?

I bought new and head stamped 6.5x53R brass from Bruce Bertram.

I still do not have the clips.

Was given a site for them, but when I looked months ago, they were "closed for covid". Perhaps we can do a joint order? If that is an issue at all.

John,

I am happy to do a joint order when that source re-opens. What 6.5x53R do you have?

cheers,
Bob

I believe the dies are the same as 6.5x54MS dies which I see from time to time on ebay.
These are two sets on ebay now but overpriced. The more reasonable one ($100) is "CH Reloading Dies 6.5 x 54 MS".

These are also dummy rounds in a clip under
"6.5x54 Mannlicher-Schonauer Snap Caps Dummy Rounds WWI WWII Greek Austrian 6.5" and
"3 mannlicher schonauer Steyr greek romanian 6.5x54 cal stripper clips 5 rd"

Dies are the same as 6.5X54 although I also have an RCBS set stamped for 6.5X53R (I didn’t even know I had them until just now as they were in a 6.5X54 box I had set aside!)

I did use the regular 6.5X54 dies for my two or three different rifles and they worked just fine.

Hi BwanaBob, we should talk on the phone. Send me your crret number by PM.

Do we need a US export permit for bits of tin? And do we need Aussie import permits nowadays? Surely not for these sundry tool holders or whatever?
