Measuring for a horseware turnout rug - I'm confused

[SAL66]

I normally measure from the middle of the chest along the horses side to his back end and that would be the size of the rug I would need. I have decided to buy a horseware turnout rug and went on their web site just to read up.
It tells you how to measure - great i thought, but then it starts talking about adding and deducting inches to get the correct size -eek.

So can somebody who has these rugs, if your horse takes between 6'3 - 6'6 would I need to go smaller/ bigger, give me advise on what to do.I want to purchase a full neck if that makes any difference.

sorry if this sounds thick but I am genuinely confused.

Thanks for reading

I my experience Horseware rugs come up a bit small compared to other rugs. So if he's between 6'3 and 6'6 I'd go for the 6'6.

I size up, Beau is between 6ft9 and 7ft, I always go for 7ft.
