All lubed (Javelina) and GC'd when cast of WWs they weigh right at 125 gr. They drop from the mold at .267" but won't chamber as the throat is .266" so I size them to .266" for a nice tight, straight on fit in the throat. BTW with the base of the GC seated to the base of the neck the front driving band just nudges the rifling. I couldn't have asked for a better fit.

I re-barreled a Mauser M48 to 6.5 x 55.  Has made a great rifle.  I really like to shoot it and my MS 6.5 x 54.
