    I’ve never seen so much marketing done in one day on a cartridge before. They did a good job on keeping this hush from the public.

      @bobmcmillen4502 Bob, all of these super duper Calibers do work. Bullet drop is less; range extended, but in real world common shooting distances, All of the PRC, 28 Nosler, Weatherby ect stuff, does not Negate the 308 cal, 30 06 cal, 270 cal, ect, which is Time Tested. My wife use to live and hunt in Wyoming, and her kids hunt Elk big Time. They all did just fine. Admittedly, her boys Jumped on the 6.5 , 7mmPrc band wagon; Super expensive Rifles, scopes, but they make the big bucks out their.
      Famed Gun Writer, Wyoming Resident, Jim Zumbo and his 3006cal can attest to.... That's all you really need!

      @@eugenegress5896 I agree. I have 2 6.5 Prc’s and 2 7 Prc’s . But my 30-06 and 270 win and 338 win are all ballistically deadly out to 1000 yards w my reloads. The only guns I don’t like are inaccurate guns😂

    👨‍🏫 AS AN ENGINEER, I LIKE THE DESIGN, BUT...I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM FILLING MY HUNTING TAGS WITH A STANDARD 270 OR 30-06! IF YOU DO, THEN YOU HAVE "BIGGER PROBLEMS" THAN JUST THE CARTRIDGE! 🤭

      @maxximus2012 My Biggest Concern Is That The Manufacturers Do Away With All The Legacy Cartridges and Replace Them With Ones We Can't Reload! What That Does is Allow The Companies To Charge Whatever Price They Want and The Government The Ability To Disarm The People! It is a Very Concerning Move! 🤔

      @@RON-m8c yeah don't think that is gonna happen anytime soon. This isn't going to replace anything you have now it is just another option to have for short barrel work keeping velocities up for hunting so you still have great energy on target. try pushing a 155gr bullet out of an 06 to 2900 fps with a 16.5" barrel lol.

      From a specs point you’re spot on. From a business standpoint, gun and ammo companies have to bring products to market to stay in business. This is especially true in today’s world of I have to have the latest and greatest of something.

    Is this steel case reloadable? What does the factory ammo cost? $5 per round? How bad is the barrel throat erosion at 80K psi? How bad is the muzzle blast? What's the muzzle psi on that 20" barrel?
    Is anyone answering these questions?

      PSI doesn't cause throat erosion. Burning powder does. Federal states it's reloadable, but cases can't be annealed. Cost? Nobody has disclosed that. My guess it will be around $3.00 a round.

    From what I’ve seen from other reputable rifle builders this new cartridge is not accurate. I believe in order for it to be accurate. They’re gonna have to back the velocities off therefore basically all you have is a steel cased 280 AI.

    My .300 rcm pushes the factory 178gr. eldx at 2900fps out of 20" barrel and does much better when hand loaded with super performance powder(3000fps).

    • @jjmckay6man1
      @jjmckay6man1 17 днів тому

      lol max load with a 24" barrel only does 2900 so doubt you are getting those speeds out of a 20 haha.

      @jjmckay6man1 I cr
      I chronograph all my loads and have my own private range out to 500 yards. I said I was getting this velocity, not that it was safe or accurate. The .300 wsm will also achieve these velocities, your doubts mean nothing in a world of fact. I love all cartridges regardless of ballistic charts and have more rifles in more chamberings than most men will ever hope to have. Firearms and hunting are a major part of my life I don't tell tall tales or big buck stories I put meat in the freezer and antlers on the wall. Regards from the Goulding Cr.
