Forgotten Little Minx

[Mr. Stevenson]

Not trying to start a caliber debate. My recent experience has enamored me with this neat little bitch. She has a lot of cache and may be the epitome of a .264 Dawn Wells:

All 6.5/264 are the 264 Winchester Magnum's bitch.

 

[Mr. Stevenson]

^^^^I agree. Kick is a problem and current optics negate ME and FPE. Dead is dead. The .264 Win is now "mild". I'm of the belief all shotguns should be 16's: Preferably SXS's. Nickel Steel M-97's/12's are also acceptable. Anyways I'm wanting a nice wood 6.5 SE.

That is all.

I thought for sure this was going to be about Snoxchic. I hope she's still out there killing things!

6.5 Swede and you pick a Brunette as your female comparator? Old Mil Swedish Bikini Team commercials say your comparison of anything "Swede" to a brunette female is significantly flawed.

55/57MM cartridges suffer from being too long or too short. You've got to seat the projectile REALLY deep to shoehorn them into a 2.8" short-action mag box, save maybe the 'Roberts as .257 projectiles are relatively short already. If one is using a long action with a 3.34" or longer mag box then one of the '06 based options boosts performance significantly without much extra recoil.

I'd place Dawn in the 300 Savage or 250-3000 realm.

My first thought as well

The 6.5/300 Wby mag bitch is the 264 Win Mag

Zuckerberg keeps wanting us to be friends.

I’m afraid to… she looks like she could pin me in 20 seconds.

So she has at least 2 creepy old stalkers!

I see your logic and replace it with unreasonableness of my own.

Also, doesn't the 7 Mauser fall within this length?

Also also SnoXChic would be an excellent face for the 6.5 SE.

it's always interesting to see the NDA/Fishingbuddy folks that Facebook thinks I should be friends with

- GST also makes the suggested list on occasion

What's Facebook?

It's a NodakAngler for non-anglers/hunters.

The 6.5/300 Wby mag bitch is the 264 Win Mag

I ran a few scenarios in QL, the 26Nos outruns the 6.5-300Wby, not by much <50FPS but independent of powder/projectile, the 26Nos was always just a bit faster.

Stands to reason as the 26Nos has 99gn of capacity vs. 98 for the 6.5-300Wby, and does it @ 3.34". Assuming Rem or Rem clone there's lots of room in the mag-box to seat longer and the 26Nos offers more COAL latitude than does the Wby.

 

[duckman1302]

I have a 264 win mag currently being built. They are not completely forgotten about!

 

[ndlongshot]

Winchester still chambers them. I've been eyeing one...

 

[Jiffy]

Here's mine:

Winchester Model 70 action
1:7.5 Brux #3
Mcmillan
Leupy Mark 4
Talleys
Omega 300

It has a stock Winchester MOA trigger in it that sucks, but will eventually get taken care of.

The shorter the skirt, the more ammo I am needing to purchase
