Well, then, here's a question for you folks. Why are there different Mauser military cartridges and why isn't the 6.5 one of them?

There is the 7x57 Mauser, the 7.65x53 Mauser, and of course the 7.92 Mauser, which the German army seemed to refer to as 7,9. At least someone claims the 6.5x55 Mauser is not a Mauser. Why not?
