Aright Ford, and anyone else who wishes to toss an opinion. Purely Hypothetical: Let's say I have a Suhl Rifle in 6,5X70R from the cradle where the 6,5X70R was designed, developed and made. And the tube is stamped 6,5X70R. And let's say Sauer is selling ammo....
I also have a Franz Sodia rifle 6,5X70R stamped 6.8(or 6.88 for that matter) and I have Franz Sodia ammo.
Say I shoot out of Franz Sodia ammo, can I purchase Suhl 6,5X70R ammo and shoot it through my Franz Sodia???
Of say I ran out of Suhl, cradle of the 6,5X70R, can I insert a Franz Sodia round in my German made 6,5X70R without any worries? Inquiring minds would like to know......
If I had an original round, one from Suhl the cradle of the 6,5X70R and one with a headstamp Franz Sodia, would the bullet diameters be exactly the same?
I am quite confident that the bulk of the Austrian hunters were not resizing their bullets......

Raimey,
these are interesting questions, but they will remain hypothetical without data.
I am interested in those 6,5x70R ammunition from Sodia.
Have you measured bullet dameter?
Do you have the cardboard packaging?
Any indication of production date?
Best regards,
