GIbOB,
Would still be based on OAL. And diameter would be the same.
Heavier or lighter, bullet weight would be in the case......... Right ?

The heavy 30-06 ball does not work with the carbine. IT should be an M2 round. The 150 FMJ bullet is the only one that is correct!!!!!!!!! Now one made by PPU is fine to use as a gauge in place of a muzzle wear gauge. In fact any of the commercial versions of an M2 works OK. The M2 bullet is made to the same specs,
Charlie, I enjoyed some time outside away from the computer today. Believe it or not, it was 56F, sunny, and only a light wind - not bad for January weather! I haven't even had the snow plow out yet - been thinking of taking the studded tires off the pickup soon, if this keeps up.
I was just guessing that the M1 ball bullet profile might differ enough to affect the "bullet test" result. Bruce seems to think so. I've got a few rounds of LC '68 M2 Ball and also a box of Korean (Pusan, I think) M2 Ball. Might look to see if they're about the same OAL and if there's any differences in the bullets. - Bob
Replying to no one in particular:
Muzzle wear gauges are available on the internet for $15 or so.
