CZickiness XXXVIII Reboot. To Honor a friend

Hello Hoosiers and Canadians.

Eh!

 

[wtburnette]

I need MO

While the 320 is on my list also you really need to hold a 365xl.

RK Guns have them with the Romeo sight...https://www.rkguns.com/sig-sauer-p3...bruary+2021&utm_content=2021-02-05+Sig+P365XL

Oh, another thing about lunch tomorrow. Has anyone checked with UJs to see if they have any restrictions in seating? I think most places in Marion County won't sit more than 6 at a table and the tables are usually spaced out for social distancing. Just a thought.

For all of you recent Bergara, Tikka, long range interested folks, I have a question. Not purely going by ammoseek prices, what are you guys seeing for cost of 308 match ammo vs 6.5 Creedmoor on various sites or shops?

Yes, I have a gear turning.

.308 Win - $0.91/rd for steel case up to $2.25 for good stuff. I found most of what I wanted around $1.50/rd.

A quick check of ammo seek for 6.5 Creedmoor shows $3.50-$6.50/rd. and much lower availability. However, I suspect if you catch it in stock at more reasonable suppliers it will be well under that.

Catching any of the good stuff in stock at reasonable suppliers will take close watching and QUICK action.

Black velvet, if you please...

Having noticed the current disparity in pricing between .308 and 6.5CM (as Tarzan illustrated), I was glad that I stayed away from the Creedmore round.
It's a fine cartridge, whose benefits are noticed beyond 800 yards, but until then, .308 gets the job done.

As an example, Midway USA just put up Hornady Match 6.5 Creedmoor 147 Grain ELD @ $2.35/rd. It will be gone in minutes.

Norma ammo has always proved to be decent but I'm guessing at that price it is not one of their top line bullets loaded in it. However, at that price, if I wasn't stocked up and reloading I would be buying a fair amount of it for general plinking and steel busting.

 

[wtburnette]

Hoping my rifle likes that Norma stuff decently as I just ordered 5 more boxes. If nothing else I can use it to ring steel with.

 

[wtburnette]

Ha, posted the above just as you were posting. Great minds...

I don't know what our official head count is.

I have not priced 6.5 at all. I was able to build a stash of .308 at about $1 a round for plinking ammo and $1.50 to $2 a round for good stuff

With that post, hopefully you'll know more soon...

Yep. Same here. I don't have enough of the good stuff at this point, but have enough for a couple of decent range trips and a couple more to just plink.

 

[wtburnette]

Kind of wishing I hadn't just bought another 100 rounds of that Norma ammo. Should have tried a couple boxes of that Ruag Swiss stuff.

Once a rifle is sighted in, a good range trip is about 5 rounds of centerfire now days.

Too late!

I was 40 minutes to late and missed out on a Ronin 10mm and 45acp. Local gun shop got them in today. Someone bought both approximately 40 minutes before I got there.

What gun shop had them>??
