Thread: 6.5x55 necked up to a .308

Thanks gimp

Start cranking' them out anyway Tobes, there's plenty of space in the wildcat arena for the 30 Tobinator or the 6.5/30 Tobester, or whatever you decide to name it! Don't suppress your creativity.

Thanks but ideas dead now

Don't let haters rain on your parade, I'm always trying to stuff more powder into that little case, this could be my answer

Its pretty shitty if its close to the 7.5 swiss. Just looked at the data. I thought it'd be faster then the .308win

So square the shoulder up a bit as well, the 30 Tobinator Improved !!

How do you sqaure the shoulder?

Typically by fire forming in your new chamber. Check out P O Ackley, most his AI stuff was simply done by squaring up the shoulder to increase case capacity.

Oh ok. How much do reamers cost to get made?
Would it be as simple as getting a 6.5x55 and reaming out a .308 barrel nd putting that on?

Hit it with a hammer to set the shoulder back, or fireform it by putting it in the Log Burner or open fire for about a while, then fill it up with powder and fire it in the rifle you don't have and lie about the velocities and accuracy, which of course will be super sub MOA Then someone on the forum (that doesn't have one either) will tell you it's shit and some one else (who also doesn't have one) will tell you how much better their one is and how their one will put 10 shot groups into a 1" group at a gazillion yards using open sights, which of course will be replaced by a $60,000 scope from the USA which will allow them to shoot 5mm at 2 gazillion yards etc. etc.
Go for it Toby..... hate to see you die of boredom after all you've been through

It'll do 2mm groups at a gazllion and 10yrds

That's the ticket. You're a genuine wildcat designer now.

6mm it

yes but be sure to ask the barista for a latte while you wait
