6.5x284 norma vs 6.5x284 win ?

Is there a difference between the two or has Norma just thrown their name on a wildat? I was looking in the Midway catalog and I saw brass or dies for the two seperately I can't remember. I was thinking about buying the new Savage " F Class " but I assumed that the 6.5 x 284 was the winchester.
 
Winchester made the .284 but didn't have anything to do with the 6.5X284, and usually the chambers for the Winchester cases will not accept the Norma or Lapua cases as they are a bit larger diameter......
 
The difference between the 6.5x284 and 6.5x284 Norma is the neck diameter. The Norma round has a slightly smallerneck. The Savage 12F is a .297 chamber neck. You may have to turn necks. I would use Lapua 6.5x284 Norma brass. I have experience in both rounds and the Savage 12F, Goiod Luck!
