Actually that is a good question "not sure what the s is for". It came to us that way from Pacific Tool & Gauge. The reamer actually states on it 6.5 LR/S. I believe that the "S" stands for the Super. I will confirm with Dave at Pacific.

The LR/S has a shorter throat according to Robert Whitley's website.

Looks like the cartridge the 260 remington should have been.

Seems that the very small advantages over the 260 wouldn't be worth it, where the 260 is pretty standard anymore and this one is not.

Maybe you should look into the 260 Ackley instead? You would have better performance than the 6.5 super.

I know this thread is old but I thought I would just chime in.
