This is not a cartridge for everyone as a matter of fact it isn't for most. Most don't have any business with a wildcat. If someone is stupid enough to buy it and give it to the 8 year old like someone is forcing him well he deserves the dumb ass award.
No one here has any experience at all with this round, don't attempt to show how much you know if it is nothing.

It's the "angel/devil" situation. I have Gunner on one shoulder telling me to go bigger/heavier and Scott on the other preaching small/fast. I can't quite bring myself to go to the .233 for deer (yet) but the 95ttsx is a good start grin

Our deer herd does, in fact, suck. That's why I travel!

I don't believe the thought ever crossed my mind. It was an example to show that, for my application, the 6.8 delivers all I need.

When I was doing my homework on the 6.8 (years ago) you provided a wealth of knowledge without the prissy attitude. Things change I guess.

I'd put the collective experience with internal/external ballistics of this forum up against most. Particularly when you consider the experience of people like Howell, Barsness, Turpin, Timm, and others.

Quite honestly anyone developing wildcats and using such inaccurate indicators such as a slightly flattened primer as indications of pressure is incredibly foolhardy.

If you want to play and act like you're some sort of expert, comparing it to other cartridges which only makes sense at similar pressures - you need a pressure strain gauge. Anything else is just BS.

This thread is starting to remind me of another one...

...hmmmm...

I think I read somewhere once that 270s are gay. Has anyone else heard this? I don't recall if it was just the 270 winchester or anything firing a .277 bullet. Anybody know?

I believe Ingwe will have to make the ruling on that.

Interestingly enough, Quickload has a wildcat with approx. the same case capacity as this round. Won't do even close to 2750 without getting into pressures too high for an AR (or at least one I'm shooting).

Did the math (and keep in mind this is using the case capacities the OP gave us for the 270AR, so things could vary a bit in real life). Ended up with around 260 fps less than the 270 Winchester.......or 2600 fps.


The developer said it has the same case capacity at the Remington 30AR.

So what kind of pressures can you run with this super bolt?

The Rem 30AR has a case capacity of 44 http://kwk.us/cases.html. Maybe that could be used as a reference?
