Howa mini build
Looking hard at the B&C stock.
DIP bottom metal for sure. The dilemma, what cartridge? (Have a 6.5G and a .222) I don’t want to get crazy. A 20 Practical interest me. Yet something on the PPC case also has my attention, thinking 20 or 22. I have shot the 6.5, just to taste the Koolaid. I myself really don’t know what all the hype on the 6.5 is about. I and a pile of other 6.5x55 Swede owners have known for years. The Grendel, looked at data all over the place just to see what folks were using. I went with H335 and Sierra 100 grain HP. Got factory glass on at 25 in three shots. Went right to 100, a 1/4” left but heck with it. Went ahead and ran seven for a group, clover leaf you could cover with a nickel. I was impressed for an off the rack rig. The .222 I need to order a rail for it. Have brass and dies. Dunno if there is a lot to be gained with the PPC case. A lot of the old and early B.R. data was way over the top of suspected pressures. Staying in a safe and sane area may not offer enough in return for time expended. Several say there is little difference between the 204R vs 20PPC. |
