Base dia. of 6.5 X 47 case?

Does anybody know the base diameter of the new Lapua case? The web diameter, right ahead of the extractor groove?
I hope that it is about the same as the 6.5 X 55. Or at least as big as the 6BR case.

Thanks for any info,

Jay
 
On the samples we received in December, measured with calipers, the diameter right at the top of the extractor groove is just under 0.468".

Note: these samples are large primer pocket. The final production brass might be different.

With same calipers, my 2004 vintage 6BR brass is 0.4685" unfired.
