Walter just put the finishing touches on his modified Ruger m77 with a Pacnor 18 in 308 for an upcoming elk hunt in Colorado.
Cool seeing a pacnor barrel in a world of carbon barrels nowadays
Would be fun to do this with the .338 Federal.
Any chance you're going to do something similar with a 6.5?
shell shock brass is coming soon and Walter will be all over it. expect to see 6.5 PRC performance from 6.5 creed.
Awesome! I emailed she'll shock to try to get some info on that and their reloadability and never got a response. I'd LOVE to see PRC performance though. Especially if it can be done in a shorter (16-18") barrel
I bet you'll be able to see 2700 FPS out of a 16-18 inch barrel with the hybrid brass.
Even with 140s?
yah I bet so. Walter is getting 2760 out of a 14.5 with 140s but the primers are showing signs of pressure
Oh hell yeah. Are you aware of anything that can be done with the primers or are they just the realistic limit?
working on that now. the brass is a lot more of a pain to convert to 6.5 than 8.6 blackout or 308, but Walter's on it.
