[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1061351, member: 24284"] What Edd said^^^^^^ , but most all cases I've measured have a rim of .470-.473 diameter. Also, I've noticed a great deal of variation in brass from maker to maker, and from new manufacture to manufacture from 10-15yrs ago. I chambered a 6.5x55 awhile back. Set the headspace @ GO + .002". I test fired it with Winchester ammo that was approx. 10-12yrs. old. Chambered and fired that ammo perfectly. That chamber would not accept newly manufactured Win. , Hornaday or Privi Partisan ammo. It would chamber newly manufactured Rem. and my handloads I constructed using Nosler brass. [/QUOTE]
