I have 2 700BDL's in .270. One is a really great shooter, the other not so good. Can you work some magic on the not so good and maybe turn it into one of YOUR calibers that will turn some heads at the local range? By the way, got the Savage 99 .300 Savage out last Friday that Colleen was so gracious to sell me when I was there during the 34 inch snowstorm a few weeks ago. OMG!!!

Larry, unfortunately I don't have a rimless rifle cartridge

that will fit in that rifle. I would need something in the 30-06 length, rimless and no bigger around than the 270 or 30-06, and I don't have a custom cartridge that fits those specs. Sorry. If you want to send me the bad one I can see if we can do some magic on it to get it to shoot.

The 375 on the 8mm case won't work?...

Always wanted a 8mm-06, Gary's 8mm GNR fills that rimmed.

I have no idea. We haven't even started the testing on it

We have several of our new GNR and Firecat cartridges that are rimless that are designed for the AR-10 but the 257 Firecat is the only one we have had time to work with. Sean has the 376 GNR barrel for testing and we have the data on that but we haven't tried it yet in a rifle. So right now I don't have anything that I know for sure that it will work in his 700.

That 375 is going to be a hoss..

With those bullets loaded long, it should be a hammer.

I do have data for the 376 GNR (8mm blown out to 375)

I have taken 2 hogs with the 376 GNR using the 210gr Barnes X at 2700 fps in a 14" barrel,Here is one of them you can see the exit on this 120lb sow. Shot was about 50 yards

we have built one encore barrel in the 376 GNR for Sean

but nothing else. We have a rifle we are working on right now in the 376 GNR but it is not to the point where I will recommend it being chambered in a customer's rifle.

338/06 is a great cartridge.
