[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1387466, member: 4191"] Hmmm... Perhaps my brain is misfiring... Let me work thru this, and maybe someone will help my understanding. Am I wrong on the 6.5 bullet diameter? Thought it was 0.264". A 6.5 bullet measures .264" outer diameter - correct? Your 6.5 CM cartridge is loaded with a .264" diameter bullet, meaning the case neck ID is about .264" with a bullet seated. Are you certain that after firing a loaded cartridge in your rifle that the ID of the case neck measures 0.255" in diameter? Meaning that the case neck ID is now 0.009" smaller than when the bullet was seated in the case neck? Your case necks would be the most elastic example I've ever heard of. [/QUOTE]
