6.5 Needmoor ~ Federal +Peak

[pathfinder76]

Ammo is likely to be ~$100/box and whether it is really reloadable remains to be seen.

Sounds like an expensive way to get a 270WCF.

Light Magnum, High Energy, EtronX....

Nothing remains

Come to think of it, that hunting rifle is on barrel number 3.

3 barrels already? Must be using federal ammo

going to grab a cheap savage axis 2 and throw on a 14" 6.5 barrel stick a big old muzzle brake on it and shoot it till it burns out.

that will be fun on the range

I own a Tikka and probably a million others. Damn great rifle, smooth action and bloody accurate!

I have an identical rifle and she's a tack driver.

Looks like SAC already has a special die for it in the works to neck down to 6mm. Which should be interesting.

My Tikka is the first I ever owned, chambered in the 7mm Remington Magnum. What chartridge is your's chambered for?

What a mistake. You should be using a 6.5 JAP with PPU round nose bullets if you're a real gun nut
