[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 1716497, member: 13732"] The 6.5 rpm is nothing more than a 2.5" 6.5-284. Case capacity is probably around 75gr so smack in the middle between saum/wsm cases. 264wm and 257wby still out lass it by almost 10gr capacity. It'll come nowhere close to same fps loaded to equal pressures and neck/bullet position. The only think it has going for it is......its the only 6.5 saami factory loaded non magnum long action case out there, that may get it some sales. The new wby case will inevitably flop just like their attempt on the uber6.5-300 wonderboomer, sales volumes are shorter, even shorter than that rifles barrel life. [/QUOTE]
