Are you saying just the brass is $1.52 each? That can't be right. I bought lots of gp11 complete cartridges in the box for around $0.65 per round.

As someone who may go this route, can you neck up 6.5x55 to 7.5x55, safely?

7.5x55 is much larger at the head than "standard" cartridges. A common case to reform was 284 Winchester, but it is scarce now, too.

Maybe one of the new cartridges would work, but I haven't checked.

Here's a diagram with metric measurements.

12.64 Millimeter = 0.4976 Inch head diameter

"Standard" cases are around 0.473 inches

PS: The 7.62x54R Russian cartridge can be used, with a lot of work.

I have about 150 GP-11 once fired shells, 81 and 82. Not tumbled, primers in.

Make a reasonable offer and its' yours.
