    The only dimensions that have relevance for a 6.5x55 Swedish are the dimensions of the 6.5x55 Swedish specifically the cartridge and chamber specs.

    Not interested enough to do the research but the 6.5x55 Swedish was a military cartridge designed long before CIP or SAAMI so like a lot of the cartridges of that era there are more variations than with newer cartridges. Those variations do cause issues at times. The dimensions of other cartridges have zero relevance unless one wants to use them to form another case.
