7-08, .243, .204, .223, 6.5 Grendel

If a predator is in the area each becomes a predator rifle

7-08 is such an underrated caliber

 

[Captains1911]

10.5" 300 BLK (supersonics.) Where I typically hunt I rarely if ever have a shot past 150 yds. Should the need arise to hunt at longer distances, I have a 16" 6.5 Grendel upper that should work just fine.

Current configuration:

Two tikka 22-250s cut at 17”.

Sorry for digging up the old post but what kind of velocity did you get with the 17” barrel

Both ARC's are getting action....

Howa minis in 223 and 6 ARC have been getting plenty of reps this fall/winter. Here’s a few with each gun.

That’s not bad at all. I have been debating cutting my sps in 22-250 down to 18 or 20. I might just wait until the barrel is burnt up and rebarrel shorter

Going to see how this newly shortened 22 creed does soon. Took it from 18" to 16" for the hell of it. I have the old load with 69 tmk's to run through it and compare to what it used to do.

Also loaded some 52 grain speer hp to rip out of there and see what happens. Use to run them very accurately out of a 22" 22-250 years ago. Wanting to see how close this maybe.

I have had really good results on coyotes with those 52gr speers in my 223’s and 22-250

I have stuck with the 69 tmk on my 22 creed.

That tikka 223 is being turned into a 6x45, but may possibly keep the factory 223 barrel, not that it was a flattering barrel.

Haven't been back out lately to shoot the ar loads to see how they do.
