Hi Cadex,

I'm really bothered by the demise of the Tremor by the OIC. I'm hoping you guys come up with something creative to keep the legend going. It would be neat if you guys still offered it, same frame size/action but go to a 416 Barret or something. Any chance you guys will consider keeping the Tremor around in Canada?

Long live the Tremor!

Sorry, but the .416 Barrett is capable of over 10,000PSI or 7,375 Ft-lbs muzzle energy, so it is banned too. It can push a 398gr solid to over 8,700ft lbs. They banned by energy, then added a few names and calibers on the list for clarity: they did not ban by name or calibre.

So is the .375 CheyTac (7,700 ft-lbs) and .408 Chey Tac (8,300 ft-lbs).

Basically they pushed long range larger diameter competition shooting down to .338 Lapua Mag as a maximum energy. Yes, there might be other cartridges I am not thinking of, but they are not as common.

Liberals just bent you over... don't blame me for clarifying.
 
I realy hope i'm wrong but by my calculation 10 000 joules = 7375 ft-lb of muzzle energy. That would mean no more : .416 barret , .408/.375 Cheytac or .375 enablr.

I realy hope that it is not the case.
 
I can't imagine the value of all the rifles over 10,000 Joules added up in Canada. it must be a staggering amount of money Trudeau has committed tax payers to dull out.

Just clarifying, because I was trying to figure it out today.

So - 338 Lapua is OK under these new idiot laws?

Assuming Shiny Pony doesn't see his shadow tomorrow and we have 5 more years of Fascism...
 
Pardon me for my lack of knowledge on the matter but would it be possible for the conservatives if they ever get back in power to reverse this OIC? Could they do their own OIC to the opposite effect?

Capable of. Pretty sure it can break it with hand loads. It's the max potential which will matter. A hot but safe load.
