6.5-08 vs. 260 Rem?

Re: 6.5-08 vs. 260 Rem?

A-Square submitted a sample cartridges and drawings of a new factory chambering to SAAMI in 1996 to establish the round as the 6.5-08 but Remington go their hand in the mix about the same time telling SAAMI they were going to standardize the 6.5 version of the 308 with the same case (Remington 260) and Remington won. Exteranly the same but there may be some internal differences.
