So, you are saying that the groove diameter of your M/S 6.5 is somewhere around .272"? If so, that is WAY oversize. They should have a bore (land) diameter of .256" or so...... I have two of the Greeks. One shoots .264" bullets very well, and the other is a dog even with .268" bullets. (Groove on this one looks to be around .272", and it would have to be rebored to at least .276" to clean it up for rerifling to .284" so 7mm bullets could be used in 6.5 M/S cases for this rifle..... in effect, a "7X54 M/S"...... Such a dummy does feed from the magazine.
