I found that to be the case in two 6.5s, the old 1915 Carl Gustaf was sweet,(long-throat), and my 1944 Husky m96 (which chambered them fine), kicked-like-a-mule, and I broke the extractor when I finally got the bolt to lift. I'd assumed they'd both have similar throats, given that they're famous for long-throats..but not so, this time. I was lucky
