After enough firings and sizings, the inside of your 6.5mm case necks can thicken up and start pinching clearance inside the chamber. The L.E. Wilson Inside Neck Reamer in 6.5mm is the tool built to deal with exactly that. It mounts into your Wilson case trimmer in place of the regular cutter and shaves away the excess brass on the inside of the neck, giving your loaded rounds room to breathe and release the bullet cleanly. The finish diameter runs .2665 to .267 inches, cut from hardened, ground steel for a crisp, lasting edge.
Thick necks are more than a nuisance. They can bump up chamber pressures and bring on erratic shooting, so keeping neck wall thickness in check is real precision work, not busywork. This reamer is ground slightly larger than bullet diameter and is meant to run on fired, unsized brass, which is why it does such a clean job of resetting necks that have crept out of spec over repeated loading cycles. It's also a handy piece for wildcatters, since reaming out necks is often part of forming cases from a parent cartridge.
This one pairs with the Wilson case trimmer setup, swapping in where the trimmer cutter normally sits. That gives you a stable, repeatable platform instead of trying to freehand the cut. The advice that comes up again and again from folks who use these is simple: take your time and don't rush the pass. Let the tool do the work and you'll get smooth, even results.
L.E. Wilson has been a family-run shop in Washington state since 1927, and that long reputation for well-made reloading gear shows up in the fit and finish here. If you're loading 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5×55, 6.5 PRC, or any other .264 case and your necks have gotten tight, this is the straightforward fix to get them back in line.
Yes, this reamer is designed to run in the L.E. Wilson case trimmer and seats in place of the standard trimmer cutter. The trimmer gives you the stable, repeatable platform that makes for a clean, even cut. A knob-style handle is included to help you turn it by hand.
The standard reamers are sized for use on fired, unsized cases. They're ground slightly larger than bullet diameter so they work on as-fired brass to bring the neck back into proper spec. Run them on your fired cases before you resize for best results.
Over repeated firings and sizings, case necks can build up material and get too thick on the inside. That extra brass can raise chamber pressures and lead to inconsistent shooting. This tool removes the excess so there's proper clearance between the case neck and the chamber.
You can. Reaming out the neck is often part of forming a wildcat from a parent case, and these reamers handle that job well. Just take your time on each pass and let the tool cut at its own pace.
