no, the 8x54 have a 12,7 gramm bullet, the 6,5x55 10,1 gramm

why the 8x54 is also named Krag-Jörgensen is beyond of my knowledge. it was a hunting cartridge for rebore swedish Mauser rifles, never see a Krag-Jörgensen for this cartridge

I only posted the 6.5 numbers so the Anglos knew what is going on.

I have read of the 8x54 in Krags before which follows the name. I've never seen one & I've never seen an 8x54 in a Swede either, tho I have seen regular "commercial 96" small ring 8x57's. I owned one.
