Re: 6.5x54 MS vs 256 Gibbs Magnum

Please check, but my understanding is that the Gibbs Magnum case is the 7x57 Mauser necked to 6.5 and shortened by 2mm.
This results in a case that is larger in diameter at the head (.473) with a slight taper, whereas the 6.5x54MS is .452 at the head, and any taper of the case is negligible to the eye.
