Today I happened upon a local ad for an older custom rifle for sale in 6.5 Gibbs (with a couple boxes of loaded ammo!)
Impulse buy and it is mine.
I don't have the rifle in my hands yet...but I am intrigued by the caliber

Should be fun to tinker with, but a quick glance into the interwebs did not turn up any reloading dies available
Anyone know of a set that could be had ?

I’d cast your chamber first and see what it looks like compared to the specs. If you end up needing to special order a die, might as well get one based on your chamber.

The gipps are an excellent case design and seldom need FLS
You could neck size with something like a Hornady 6.5 neck die or a 260 AI bushing die and seat with a 260AI seater , both obviously turned out to the correct length
