Is Nosler 6.5 brass the smaller American dimensions or the PROPER European dimensions. What difference would it make in a sporterized 96 Mauser? :?:
 
I have been shooting Rem and WW as well as Lapua cases in all my Swede model rifles and I get about the same accuracy and case life from them all. I do match prep my Rem and WW cases (square primer pockets and de-burr inside flash holes) but you don't have to do this to the Lupua. Just don't push the loads over 46,000 C.U.P and you will do OK. If you leave the 29" barrel on a M-96 you can still get some smoken velocity with the slow burner 4350 and slower powers and stay under the 46,000 C.U.P. . I get in the high 2900 up to 3000 fps with 120 gr bullets and around 2800 fps with 140's in my sported M-96 with well under 1" accuracy at 100 yards.

I don't know anything about the Nosler cases. Never used any.
