[QUOTE="snox801, post: 1580546, member: 54383"] With all respect JE it’s just not the case capacity that factors into long vs short it’s bite size also. Case in point the .243 win vs .308. Same case but the .308 with larger bore doesn’t have the same advantages gaining speed as the .243. Capacity plays a large role but the amount it is necked down means just as much. So the 6.5 being close to the .308 in capacity would have the same gains. 6.5 gains little over 22” but the 6mm will. The larger the capacity and smaller the bore the more barrel you need so both matter equally as much. [/QUOTE]
