Did you know that the 6.5mm family of cartridges.....

are REALLY 6.7mm ??????????????????

In actuality, .264" is NOT 6.5mm. .257" is !!!!

This changes EVERYTHING !!!!!

Now it's.....

6.7x55 Swede
6.7 Rem Mag
6.5-06 (which is the .25-06)
6.7-06 (which USED to be the 6.5-06)
6.7-300 Weatherby

Life will never be the same.............

The .270 is actually closer to true 7mm than the 7mm's are.

Well, GREAT................

Now we have the 7mm Winchester being Jack O'Connor's pet......... and then there will be the......

7.2mm Rem Mag
7.2mm RUM
7.2mm STW
7.2mm WSM
7.2mm-08
7.2-30 Waters
7.2x57 Mauser.............

8mm always beckons to me. I guess I need to buy one or build one after hunting season.

You mean like an 8.2x57 ?? Or maybe an 8.2 Rem Mag........... ?? Or are you considering the TRUE 8mm ?? The .303 British ??
