6.5x6mm

[drscott]

I have a 6mm Remington that the barrel is just about done on and have had a hankering for a 6.5. I wonder if anyone has built one of these or if I would just be better building a 260. Just looking at case dimensions this would give a little more case capacity and velocity. Just wondering if anyone has done this and your impressions.

If you did that essentially you would have this: http://gundata.org/cartridge/28/6.5x57-mauser/

Been around since before the first world war.

Pretty cool cartridge though. Wouldn't mind having one.

The brass also comes in a rimmed version if you want to build a really cool single shot.
