    6.5 Roberts

    Anyone familiar with this caliber? I picked up a set of RCBS FL dies for this caliber fairly cheap, and now I'm wondering what to do with them

    6.5mm is .257 inch
    Looks like it's a 257 Roberts.

    6.5 is typically a .264 caliber bullet. The 6.5x57 was a popular caliber way back when there were a lot of arisaka rifles floating around. I wonder if the 6.5 Roberts is the same as the 6.5x57. Both the 257 Roberts and 6.5x57 are based off the 7x57.
