[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2731879, member: 115658"] The 6.5X55 Swedish is sort of a peculiar round in that the head diameter measures .480 vs .473 like most common rounds like .243W, .270W, .30-06, .22-.250 and others. In addition, the 6.5X55 is longer & has much more body taper. It just won't fit. A rechamber & set back job might work depending on rifle type. The 6.5X55 is sort of an odd ball round. I have heard that the famous BAR has been chambered for the 6.5X55. [/QUOTE]
