What would you build?

[Ringbill27]

6-378 Bee. Live a little!

378 Weatherby Mag necked down to 6mm?

378 Weatherby Mag necked down to 6mm?

Won't fit a .532 face.

 

[Ringbill27]

Are people against using standard calibers and magnums for some reason.

On this forum yes. 223 or nothing.

Heck if Sierra came out with a high BC 17cal or 20cal TMK that’ll be the next go to moose bullet.

Didn’t look into it any farther then wanting to know if that’s what was meant by 6-378 Bee.

 

[ceerdub]

7-300 PRC

 

[Steve300xcw]

I say might get hunted but really its just a big dumb range toy. Kinda leaning 264 or 7mag but just window shopping right now

Yeah, I was mostly joking but it would be interesting to see what a 109 ELDM at 3600 fps would do to a coyote….

 

[Steve300xcw]

what coyote..

 

[Castle Rock]

264 Win mag

 

[bnewt3]

Why not something completely silly like a 257RUM or 243RUM.

 

[rabbithuntr]

Fast twist 257 weatherby, followed by 264 wm
I’d probably just sell it and buy more ammo or put a 7prc barrel on it and sell it that way

Hahahahahhaahhahaha. Tooo funnny

Kinda depends on whether handloading is an option, but with the .540 bolt face...

If handloading's not an option, then maybe a .264 win mag, or 7PRC.

If handloading is an option, there are some hotrod 6mms that could be pretty cool. 6 PRC could be a good one.

 

[Steve300xcw]

Yes handloading.

 

[Taudisio]

Yes handloading.

25/6.5prc or just 6.5prc if you want a 264 would be my vote.

A 27 Nosler throated long for the 170 Elite Hunter would be an absolute rocket (3,250+ fps) that turns elk organs into mush and mist. You could probably get 3,500 or more fps out of a Hammer HBC with a BC of .580.

26 and 28 Nosler would be the same idea.
