I have tried to determine the difference between 6.5x55 and 6.5x55R. "Cartridges of the world" does not list a rimmed 6.5x55. Simpsons LTD lists sevetal rifles chambered in 6.5x55R. Was there a rimmed swedish 6.5x55R?
I like Simpson's ad have ordered from them before.
With that said....
I also have noticed that at times , the description / ad copy does not match the item shown.
Is that maybe the case here....or are the actual rifles marked as 6.5x55mmR...?

I will give Simpsons a call and get some clarification on this and report back. I am looking for a large ring mauser in 6.5*55. I might just have a rifle rebarreled if I can't find one.
