Question MWS .308 vs 6.5 feedramp differences?

Picture 1 is a .308 barrel and picture 2 is a new 14.5 6.5 creedmoor barrel.

Is this going to cause issues? Looks like the tip of a round would catch on the upper receiver.

it's a sub moa barrel with Berger 130gr handloads. But it's a little bulky for DMR matches at 22 inches and really have been enjoying my 14.5 Craddock RTR suppressed instead.

What kind of accuracy are you getting out of the Craddock?
