[QUOTE="carswellb58, post: 1232240, member: 86409"] I've ordered a new rifle and it's being built now. and I decided to select a 6.5-284 Norma. While it's being built I've begun acquiring dies, powder, brass and bullets. It may be a bit late for me to make this discovery, but 6.5 bullets are 6.7 mm in diameter. It seems odd to me to call it 6.5 when it measures 6.7. Can someone explain? I don't guess it makes that much difference, since it's just a name, but seems odd to me. Am I overlooking something?
