Re: 1903 groove diameter

I have had some of the Carcano bullets, and of two lots they were .2675" and .2680". So there's a little variation. However, with a .2685" groove diameter, they do fine. I have slugged Dutch Steyrs as large as .2690".

I think the original 6.5mm Dutch Mannlicher round used a .262" or .263" bullet in those oversized bores.
