could be your soldering iron I had used a Weller 40 watt and that didnt get it done, I stepped up to the 100/140 model and it reaaly helped, I have since upgraded the tip to an all copper tip you can get at Radio Shack, and make sure the tip is clean, I used the old Deans solder that has the lead in it, you dont need any flux but they stopped making it due to the lead content. The 6.5 size were harder than smaller ones you need a lot more heat,

Have you tried using 5.5mm bullets? IMO they would be enough....I think the 4mm would be too small
