What did you reload today?

[Capn Jack]

Just checked the box, Lyman #357446. It was advertised as a, Keith semi-truncated cone and I ordered it in HP. They usually come out of the mold at 145 gr.

I'm guessing 6.5-08 but I think the shoulder is too steep.

No, DLS was the closest. Diameter correct.

Good on you! Bet you are like me and most of us, I never mind burning ammo on folks that may join us as shooters! Reload on my friend.

I especially like it when they take a shine to my older guns and are interested in the history. A good history teacher should open your eyes to the future with an inspired teaching of the past. Firearms are a HUGE part of our past they shouldn't be left out.

.270 wssm? Not a big rifle guy total 'shot' in the dark. Or I guess .25 wssm. That's closer to 6.5mm I guess.

6.5 Grendel?

Edited to add:

If I'm right I'd like to pick your brain a bit. I'm thinking of building up a Grendel rifle on an AR receiver for my small framed daughter. I'm thinking it would be a perfect Blacktail / Sporter Rifle rig that she could handle really well.

Nope, again 6.5 is correct, but it's not Grendel. Think of the hottest ELR cartridge on the market right now.

6.5-300 Weatherby?

Edited to self correct, nope, too long of a case. 6.5 PRC, maybe?

 

[DLS]

By hottest do you mean popularity or energy. If popularity than 6.5 CM which is my third choice. If energy than I'm out of guesses, maybe 6.5 PRC?!

 

[CLT65]

I was thinking PRC too. The case body is too fat to be anything else.

 

[drstrangelove]

Ding Ding! Winner... 6.5 PRC

Your gov is slightly more deficitet than ours in that she has not yet asked your citizens for the highest fuel tax in the country yet, but, she will learn.
