I planned to get some 6.5x54MS ammo and see if it chambers correctly but thought I would ask the expertise here as well.

After you confirm the bore dimensions, Reed's Ammo will make cartridges for you: https://reedsammo.com/ He's a good guy (Oklahoman, as well).

The safest course of action, as you seem to have doubt of chamber / bore dimensions, would be to have a cast made of the chamber. Cerrosafe, a bismuth alloy, may be used to 'slug the bore' 'DIY' or one may engage a gunsmith to perform the task.

Other MS information may be found by searching NitroExpress and / or here: https://www.africahunting.com/threads/ma...velocity.47277/
