  1. So what is the beneficial improvements over the previous GM 168gr/175gr rounds? Seems to be about the same pricing. Will the previous stuff be going away with the advent of these?

    • I suspect that these are probably in-house manufactured bullets rather than the prior Sierra Match Kings.

    • the joke being:
      theres not enough aks
      on 10 planet earths
      that are accurate enough
      to justify a line of premium match ammo in it

      • I would imagine in a bolt action rifle with match emu the 7.62×39 would be more accurate then what you’d think.

        • There are videos of people getting good groups with super cheapo emu out of an affordable Ruger American.

        • Fellow shooters at my local range are astounded at the groups I can get out of my Howa 1500 mini-action HB with handloads in Lapua cases… they think of 7.62 Soviet as a 3 to 5 MOA cartridge out of AKs with cheapshit steel cased ammo – not a half to three-quarter MOA one. About that time I point out that it’s the parent case to the 6 PPC.

        • The lack of accuracy of the AK can be attributed largely to the rear sight being an open leaf on top of the chamber. Install a Tech-Sights peep on the back of the receiver and watch your groups shrink 60%.

  4. Always good to hear of new bullets. Never thought .308 would cost what .300 weatherby used to. Times change.
    I’ve no .308′ or 6.5Creedmoore however. Say that 6.5 Creed does have some fine ballistics though. I just cant start buying new , I’ve got to much of the old to feed already. .243 is my favorite, then 06. The .300 wthrby was a waste of money for me because the moose and bear hunt my boss promised me never panned out. I think he said that just to keep me on the tractor longer?
    I’ll plant any field and guide any hunt except waterfowl.
    I’ve no idea why anyone would want to get up a 4.30 in the morning to wade in mud and ice water.
    Never did trust them guys, I always thought they were a little touched.
    I suppose those match bullets would work okay for hunting too, not just shooting targets.
    I’m pretty sure I found some bigfoot tracks down in the bottoms yesterday, size 14 and the print pattern looked them Panama treads the Army used to put on some of their boots.
    I’ll get that bastard sooner or later. Does anyone know of a good bigfoot call? Lohman doesn’t make one nor Burnam and Brothers.

      • Heh heh, I reckon his parents would get mad if I tied him to a string around my neck and took him out in the brush though.

    • ‘6.5 Creed does have some fine ballistics…’

      Just not quite as fine as .260 Rem.

        • .260 = 6.5CR 50fps. Creedmoor was purported to be designed to utilize longer higher SD bullets but neither the Creedmoor or the .260 has the case capacity to take advantage of them. Better off sticking to 120-130 grain bullets even at 1000 yards.

          That said, my .260 has an 18-1/2″ barrel, so probably not an ideal choice for long range. Shoots quite nice though, owns the tightest group I’ve ever shot (probably 90% luck though).

        • Muck, a shorter barrel is actually good for accuracy but at at 18-1/2″ you’re giving up about 140fps vs 24″, so a Creedmoor with a 22″ barrel (all else being equal) would probably produce higher velocities. I’m thinking for long rage target shooting you’d want a long and heavy barrel. No place around here to shoot that far anyway though.
