[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 1012895, member: 1007"] Anybody? I'm interested in building a 'smaller' 6.5 cartridge. The 6.5x47 sounds intriguing. It seems as if the strong Lapua case with small rifle primer pockets hold higher pressures really well. It has quite a bit less case capacity versus a 260 rem and 6.5 creedoor yet runs almost as fast. I'm assuming this is due to running loads at top pressures. All that in mind, I was thinking about going the route of the 260 using the 308 Lapua Palma case with the small rifle primer pocket necked down to 260. Has anybody tried this? Any ideas? Maybe 45-50 grains of the slower powders won't ignite well?? What do you all think? M [/QUOTE]
