boltface change for 6.5x55 sweed

[JWW123]

can a standard .473 bolt face be used with no mods and feed and extract since the rim on this cartrige is @.007 larger ? iwant to build one i think and this is the only problem there might be as i see it thanks JWW

The rim on most brass is not actually any larger - works fine.

mine works well with lapua brass. it started life as a 30-06

During the last six years I have shot the 6.5x55 more than any other caliber. Buy the Lapua brass!
