Reloading the 277 Fury 6.8x51 SIG Hybrid Case

[Pescetism]

I haven't seen any true Fury neck ups, just 308 based conversations, i.e. 338 Fed, 358 win, 375 Raptor, 45 Raptor. 45 Raptor is straight walled.

Keeping the full Fury shoulder and case length (same as 308) would be too long for AR10 magazines and true short actions with 338/375 bullets.

What about necking one of these 277 fort cases to 22 or 6mm

I sized one down to 22-250AI. It was a PITA. Multiple annealings and 4 or 5 passes to get the neck down and it still wrinkled the snot out of the shoulders.

450 Furymaster?

I think 10mm is as big as we can go keeping them full length and not going straight wall.

Cool.

I was just being a smart azz.

I have a 450 Marlin barrel with a .460 suppressor in the back of the safe for that game.

I did a 450 Marlin AR-10 a long time ago. it was fun for a minute but completely useless...

Whos necked up this case??? 308 case size really shines when you move to a 35 or 375 cal bullet. Also a straight wall would be interesting for those poor folks that live in caliber restricted states.

I've done the 338fed. Within 50fps of 338wm.
I need to pull that barrel and see what it looks like now.

Mine is a Desert Tech SRS A2.

I bought the barrel for an Iowa tag.

Here where I live I want to "get around" to trying the 410gr sub-x bullet on whitetail with Trailboss or VV330 or Unique.

It seems like in its full form with the 350rn it would field dress them on the hoof.

I have some 250gr TSX I want to try too.

So many better options.

I put a long action bolt stop on my tikka 308 action and use 300 win mag magazines.

It seems like 338 would be doable on a tikka action if loaded long with the same set up.

There's a little room left in my mags and I'm at 2.97.

Oh, yeah you should be good with a Tikka. Factory magazines in other actions is what I was referencing.

45-90 on SH has posted about forming the hybrid brass into 358 Win and 8.6 BLK. He's also seeing the chamber gouging but doesn't care much as he chambers his own barrels.

Finally got my powder from minnesota so I will get some data up for a 375 raptor soon. Really hoping we can see 2400+ with 270g.

Oh that's out of a 16in barrel btw

I like the way you think! Random thought: the Speer 270gr BTSP’s would be a good (and decently priced) option there to maximize speed/upset potential on target, decent bc (for 375), and short bearing surface relative to other options if you’re into that type of bullet

That's actually the bullet the cartridge was designed around!
