[QUOTE="Jamie6.5, post: 317777, member: 16954"] The case is longer on the .280 by ~.040". The length to neck/shoulder juncture on the .280 should be around .018" longer. The neck should be shorter. Of course this all depends on who's reamer it is and who cuts the chamber/sets headspace. Plus, I believe there are saami specs on the 6.5/06 but maybe not. You can use these guys to explore case specs: [url=http://www.4-dproducts.com/display.php?group=Rifle+Calibers]4-D Products Rentals[/url] Personally if I was going to do a wildcat like this one I would base it on the .25-06 case for simplicity of case prep. One pass through the resizer for neck expansion, load and shoot. My 6.5x.257R Ackley has that advantage. [/QUOTE]
