[QUOTE="Browninglover1, post: 893423, member: 29966"] I think his hang up is with the 6.5mm part. A 6.5mm bullet is really not 6.5mm it's 6.7mm. The minor diameter of the barrel is actually what is 6.5mm. I have no idea why someone chose to name calibers this way because if you throw calipers on a 6mm, 6.5mm, or 7mm bullet they definitely don't measure like they should. [/QUOTE]
