I would assume so. But there is a rule never to assume.

What's wrong with these Austrians, using the same nomenclature for two different cartridges, rimless 6.5x54 MS or rimmed 6.5x53R, as .256 Mannlicher. Not very German.:)

But then the .256 Mannlicher is British.

Mate, was hoping to catch up in August this year. Unlikely now. Maybe 2021.

Gives me lots of time to work on getting more rifles working for it. As long as my PhD in Procrastination doesn't need a new thesis.
