I was refering to full length sizing, can full length sizing be done on the .243 lbc?
Does the 243 lbc have the 40 deg sholder. I was going to go with the 6mm turbo improved, but am not having any luck finding a bolt barrel only.

As far as finding a barrel bolt combo, good luck. As far as I know AR-X Enterprises is the only source for a Turbo. Also, the other problem you may run into is feeding. 40 degree sholders don't always feed reliably.
The 243 LBC has a 30 degree sholder just like the parent case. No fire forming is required. Full length sizing can be done one of two ways.
#1 use a full length 6 PPC die held .070 off the shell holder.
#2 Use a Redding 6.5 Grendel full length S die.
Either way it is one pass and you have a 243 LBC
