More 5mm remington ammo?

As soon as it is in the supply chain, we'll order it

Awesome!!

Now if some one could find a supply of 25 long RF

I've never seen a 5mm round. Can someone post a pic of one next to a known round (such as .223) so I can see what it looks like? Sounds interesting.

Any word yet? Thanks.

Funny how the 5mm kind of faded away yet Hornady brought out the 17 HMR to great success. Is it because it had Magnum in the name?

I believe Remington was the only producers of rifles for this rd. And only had 2 models, a bolt action, one with a tube, and one with a clip.

That is correct the model 591 and 592 (I own 1 of each) as well as a Thompson Contender pistol which I've never seen personally. Like I mentioned earlier in the thread there was rumor Savage was going to start making a 5mm again a few years back, but I'm not sure what happened with that.

Aren't the Savage 22's made here in Canada? Too bad they couldn't be persuaded to produce a 5mm. Maybe even in a semi, for the tacti-cool crowd.

It was announced at SHOT. ​ expect to see it this spring

I really like the round and if I'm not mistaken it was only around for 5 or 6 years starting in the early '70s and the ammo started drying up in the late '70s to early '80s

Sweet!! Any word on the estimated price?

 

[spooksar]

I’ll take 2-5000 rounds, I’ve got about 150 left

I have around 700 rounds left. I'd sure like to be able to shoot my rifles more and not have to worry about shooting more then 50 or so rounds the few times I take them out. I managed to grab the last brick Can Am had a few years back when they had some.

I’d take 2000

Any update on when you'll have some 5mm yet?
