Yeah I get what you're saying, but my point is although they might look similar visually, there is a pretty significant difference when comparing the two cartridges internal volume and design.I am just saying that there is very little difference when you look at them both side by side.
The 6.5 prc h20 capacity is around 67 grains
The 6.8 is around 76 grains of h20.
This probably doesn't matter much to someone who only buys factory loads and doesn't handload. But to a cartridge nerd like myself, these type of little details are what matter in cartridge selection.
Edit: to the op, if you are curious, the 280 AI h20 case capacity is really close to the 6.8 western at around 71-73 depending on brass manufacturers.
