6.5 shortmag capacities

dirtytough · Nov 18, 2019

I'm curious what the H2O case capacities are for the 6.5 PRC, 6.5 SAUM, and 6.5 SS? Pretty sure ADG makes brass for all 3 so it would be nice to hear the capacities of those cartridges with ADG brass so it's apples to apples.

6.5 prc 69gr
6.5 saum is 73gr
Not to sure on SS but I bet it's close to the prc. If you're going to run it on a designated short action, go with the Sherman as you'll get 100% use of the case capacity, as that's what it was designed for. If your going to run in intermediate, long action, or Tikka, the prc will use all its 188 freebore loading Bergers long. I have a couple 6.5 SAUMS and like them very much, ones on a short action with 0.098 freebore, the other is on a Tikka with 160 freebore.

SS is equal to the saum and SST is right in between the saum and prc at 70.1

Thanks for the info. I am planning on the 6.5 SS. I was mostly curious.
