6.5 Swede - Slugging the Bore

[Grouchy Spike]

Of those who have slugged the bore on their M96, and found the bore diameter to be larger that 0.264", what was the bore diameter?

 

I have two barrels slugged at 0.266" and both appear to be in excellent condition.

Mine is a 0.256" bore diameter (lands) per the stock disk (6.50 mm marking).  Haven't slugged it to measure groove diameter.  I size bullets to 0.266".  As long as I keep the velocities at 1600 FPS. I get good accuracy, no leading.

 

Good luck, GJ
