That is a universal bore guide for bolt actions. Not a bad tool to have if you don't have one so you may want to keep it and have your vendor send you the AR 6.5 Grendel bore guide that as mentioned, looks similar to a 223/5.56 guide. I use the Possum Hollow bore guide for my AR 6.5 Grr. Works OK but I would bet the Satern Guide or others may work better. The Possum Hollow allows solvent back into the chamber unless I have the rifle tilted drastically toward the muzzle. My 5.56/223 bore guide, (10+ year old generic markings guide from Brownels), works much better.
I don't have the Wheeler but.......a quarter inch to mm is 6.35mm and if Wheeler is stating that the 6.8 jag won't work with their guide, then one would assume the 6.5 "MAY" not as well. Maybe someone here has tried it and can tell you yeah or nay but the differences between 6.8 and 6.5 are pretty slim as you most likely know.
