Seems it would work as good as the 300 blackout but a lot more bullets designed for that velocity envelope. Use the 300 BLK mags Should be about the same performance. Similar to the 6.8-222 I have been thinking about. Seems Quality Cartridge makes brass for both. 577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S. (Founder) | ||

That would be the 7mm MS necked to .277...call it the 27/270/6.8 MS...or whatever. Might just be a cool little booger...you could always rechamber to the larger cases if it didn't suit your taste. Little brother to the BR series...or...?? ~2500fs in the 7mm version with several powders, 26" bbl and a 140 gr bullet...not too shabby for such a little case...definitely something to think about for a limited range deer/antelope/varminting shooter...but the original 6.8 case isn't all that shabby either. Be neat in a micro sized Single Shot or bolt receiver. It's amazing what a change in bullet size nomenclature can do for a very old, very good caliber. Better hurry up Boomy...someone else will get the jump on you for a "new" wildcat... Luck | |||

PS...I still have one more XP-100 receiver with the correct bolt head that's just bugg'n' the heck out of me to stick a barrel on...would be just right for a 6.8 sumpn-sumpn... Hahahahahahahaha Luck | |||
