6.8 WESTERN:
A Nosler 165 gr. ABLR, ahead of ~ 60 gr. of RL 22, for ~ 2,950 fps...?
Would:
- Produce ~ 23 ft-lbs of recoil from a 24" Bbl'ed 8.5 lb rifle.
- Have a MPBR(+/-3") of ~ 300 yards.
- Carry 2,000 ft-lbs out to ~ 425 yards. (for the big stuff)
- Carry the 2,000 fps/1,500 ft-lbs freight out to ~ 675 yards.
- Be supersonic out to ~ 1,500 yards.
Stuff it into a M70 EW/SS and throw in a Partition bullet at that wt. for the woods...?
Very interesting...
