Rifle cartridge build ideas?

[John Klingenberg]

I am in the same boat I have 280 and 7mm tcu just left the range and on the way home I was thinking 7mm Grendel or GT. I have a 6mm creedmoor I shoot a lot but I like the idea of something with more bullet and less powder I have a Grendel case and 7mm 130 laying on the bench from this morning I need to go to my friends house and pick up a GT case and stare at both for a day or two Good luck keep us up to date

If you can, post me a pic of a GT next to a Grendel.

I will just called him waiting for return call but I was looking at the 6creed and Grendel this morning

I shoot a LOT of Grendel, something between those two is what I need

I think the grendel case will be a bit slow for you from what you were talking about earlier

 

[John Klingenberg]

Yes, the grendel case is out.

Looking at 6gt case on line h20 43-44 depending on brass and looking at c.o.a.l,I think I should re-barrel my ruger number 1 in 7mm gt.i just finished a 7mm tcu and I think I told my wife I don't need anything else.plan B phasing now

I'd be interested in that reamer as well. I'm headed over to visit Z-Hat web and see what hes got.

284 Winchester , probably plenty of brass and dies available , great little cartridge that never caught on . Build it on long action and throat it .

That's a 105 Berger hybrid target in the 6GT

 

[John Klingenberg]

That's a nice case size and in the area I'm trying to be.

I can't sleep thinking about it.i think it could be a good 300 target and deer killer with 140's and 9 twist

Here is what the 6GT will do

That's pretty impressive. What's the GT parent case? I did find a set of dies for the 7mm Talbot, a 1.75 inch 308 case blown out and necked. The reamer would be a special order. A rougher and a finisher would run 320.00 and for the GT you could use existing gauges and dies.
