What’s the case capacity between each cartridge?

also has any one run 6mmbr from SR25 mags?

I plan to run a short barrel but I think comparison between these is low.
 
Norma 6XC brass has 49.3 grains of H2O capacity
I believe Peterson 6XC brass is just slightly less, like 49.2
My Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor brass that I necked down to 6 Creed holds 52.1 grains of H2O

Per the drawings, the creed is ever so slightly bigger. If someone tossed you either one with a covered headstamp, you probably couldnt pick which one it was without a side by side comparison. The XC neck is about .030 longer, shoulder is pushed back about the same amount(iirc) as compared to the Creed.
