Yep they will work in all three. the 6.5 calls for a magnum primer in most cases. I would use the WLR primers in the 6.5 The WLR primers tend to be a little hotter. -

Howa 1500 "sticky bolt" Question
Might be from a hot chamber? LC brass is military brass and usually heavier., which will increase pressure. Neck turning is a personal choice. How clean is the neck and chamber when the sticky bolt occurs? how many times have you shot that lot of brass. Over worked brass sometimes will not... -

Redding die question
A standard full-length sizing die is machined to size a case to standard dimensions, regardless of case thickness. As far as the main body of the case goes. bushing dies size the neck .001 to .003 that eliminates the expander being pulled up through the neck in turn results in less sizing of... -

222 mag
I shoot the lighter bullet 45gr Vmax and a load of IMR3031, win small rifle primers. I have shimmed thin tapered rifle Barrells with Tape. It helped on a 243win I had. You could bed the barrel 3 to 4" in front of the receiver. Sometimes that works. I had issues with other powders I tried till... -

Pressure and Crimps
Wow, I personally would not shoot them. How many boxes do you have? If they would not take them back If only a box or two I would try to rework and salvage what I could, Did you try to chamber one? The neck looks bulged to the point that they may hangup and not cycle. -

Erratic concentricity issues
From your description it sounds like the seater die is causing the problem. You would think there would be more pieces with poor run out. I would anneal the necks on the brass and use plenty of lube on the inside when resizing, FL resize is what I do. clean the shell holder if it has a buildup... -

Annealing
I still have the brass. I resized it several time and really could not get the bullets to hold. I did try crimping with a FCD. may have been better but I lost interest in trying to salvage it. I might try some different loads. I have a much better assortment of components to try. The rifle is a... -
