Name this cartridge for a buck!

[Dallas Jack]

6mm TCU?

Sorry, I was typing to slow and did not see the last 1/2 dozen posts.

 

[Chuck53]

5.45x45mm?

 

[witchhunter]

.270 vj

 

[Magnuumpwr]

Anyone with idea of how far off a 6.5 creedmoor is? Never mind, way off. Looked up my own answer.

 

[Driswalds]

5.45x39

 

[big boom]

6x39mm? I'm guessing a 6mm wildcat on a .223 or .221 fireball

 

[mnrivrat]

6.5 Carcano

 

[Cryogaijin]

too pointy to be a .226 Barnes. Could be a .220 swift with a stupidly long bullet.

 

[HOOfan_1]

Guys he has already said it is a .223 blown out to 6.5mm

 

[303tom]

Do you people not read these or do you just read the first one & then post something ?...........He said it was a 6.5-223, that would be a

6.5x45.............

 

[big boom]

6.5 pcc
( or is it something already obscure, then ackley improved?)

 

[303tom]

Sorry HOOfan_1 I am a SLOW typer..................

 

[yzguy87]

pockets, I feel your pain! I too wish I could use "long pointy rifle cartridges" here too:banghead:

 

[230RN]

Yeah, we're still trying to make the .223 a viable cartridge for anything bigger than a prairie dog.

(Terry runs and hides.)

Thanks, mwsenoj, but donate my vast winnings to a good cause. I actually liked rbernie's answer best.

 

[big boom]

How about another one?

 

[jonnyc]

How about this one? If you get it you can have my $1.

 

[zeos]

.22tcm

 

[Grassman]

.223 for little people.

 

[c4v3man]

How about this one? If you get it you can have my $1.

.22 reed express?

 

[orionengnr]

Okay, I'm a sport...

7mm Rudolph?

6.5mm Roosevelt (The Buck Stops Here?)

 

[xxjumbojimboxx]

6.5x25 with a .223 bullet in there?

 

[HankB]

Winner winner chicken dinner! I was planning on calling it the 6.5-223! I don't really have a rifle to shoot this (yet) but it sounded fun send me your email JohnnyC.

There are already several versions of a .223 necked up to 6.5mm - I have a "6.5 Ingram" barrel for my Contender from when I was shooting handgun metallic silhouette back in the '80s, and T/C had a 6.5 TCU.

From a 15" barrel, my Contender was giving me around 2100 ft/sec with a 140 grain bullet.

No need to re-invent the wheel.

.223 IMI for that teeny-weeny lookin 223 thing.
Made by IMI (obviously) to turn the Uzi into essentially an early PDW.

It would get buck if applied correctly.
