O/T 6.5 swedish mauser

Post by gary rice »

Off topic a bit but does anyone have a fairly recent hornady book listing the 6.5 mm swedish mauser? Im looking for the correct col for the hornady 100 grain bullet. Not my gun but helping a friend.

Lyman #49 lists 2.850", I only load the 125's and stretch 'em out to 3.050" with 38 grains of H4895.
