What reloading die set and brass does Black Hole Weaponry recommend for their barrels to reload the .264 lbc with? I have heard that 6.5 Grendel and the 264 lbc are the same and it is the chamber that is different, but I want to know for sure, and not hear..."well it should work".

A 6 PPC Redding Type S Full Length Sizing Die die will also work for it. We are using the PPC's for all the smaller ones with bushings and the Redding 6 PPC will have a hole big enough to get the necks through for the 264 case. For brass buy the Alexander stuff and don't look back. Greg |

That way I could use it to load my 243 LBC. |

What about the Hornady die from LBC for the 264? and what about the Hornady brass from LBC? I know that the AA stuff is Lapua and they guarantee almost 10 times per case to be able to reload, is that accurate? As soon as I hear back from Stacy, I plan to start getting my brass and die, to have rounds ready when the barrel shows! I have no need to reload for any other cal, so what I am looking for is the best full length die and brass, I currently use all rcbs dies and have had no problems, but that is just what I have been used to! Thanks for the input, I just want to have the right stuff for the BHW barrel!

Go with the Hornady 6.5 Grendel dies. Also use LAPUA or AA brass as they are the same. The main differance between the LBC and the Grendel is the lead and the diameter of the neck. You can't change either one with dies.
I am sure RCBS dies would serve you well, we just prefer the Hornady because of the seating die and the shape of the expander ball. YMMV

This helps tremendously, as soon as I get my barrel ordered, I will start getting my reloading supplies.
