Thanks again, but again, that's not the spec sheet for the Carcano, so the conclusions you're drawing, if they come from the linked document, are baseless. And the file I previously posted was the one you linked in post 107.
*edit: typo.
Correct, that isn't the spec sheet for the cartridge which the Carcano fires. You are, however, missing the point and have lost track of why this spec sheet was linked to.
Bob said that any 6.5mm rifle with a .268" groove diameter was incapable of being accurate with a .264" bullet.
I said that I had such a rifle, in 6.5x54, and that such dimensions (bore and bullet) were correct for it. Bob called me a liar.
The CiP documents proove that a .264" bullet fired through a .268" barrel are the norn. If they are the norm it means they are acceptable from an accuracy perspective.
If the CiP say that a .264" bullet can be fired through a .268" barrel then Bob 's whole thesis collapses.
JL.
