The old 264 WM is a hammer. A lot of the others are too, but it still gets the job done REALLY well after all these years. With the new bullets and powders available today it is still a legit choice for an kicking 6.5

I have had very good luck with Retumbo in 7 Rem mag

What in the wide world of sports??? Please explain the basis of your claim about barrel life.

Agreed!

Never owned a Sig scope in my life, but I do have a Kilo 2200 range finder and it’s honestly done very well. I did put my hands on a Tango 6 yesterday at a local gun shop. Liked the reticle and the glass seemed pretty good. No Kahles by any means, but still not bad. I did notice the...

2000 yards....that’s a pull for a Creed

I own a 264 WM and frankly love it. Yes, I know it’s “hard on barrels”, but I really don’t care....I’ll set it back and re-chamber it after +/- 1000 rounds or buy a new barrel, it’s just an expendable costs associated with this hobby, no different than brass, bullets, etc. It shoots like a...

No sir, I have not. I did shoot a few 130 Bergers through mine with RL 22 and had ok results, but never tried them with Retumbo.

Anytime and good shooting! This load is very consistent. I think I settled in on 68 gr, but that may be on the upper end of the powder charge....at least in my rifle.

Custom build on a left over Winchester action I had laying around. 28” 1:8 twist Kreiger, McMillan A5 stock, Jewel trigger built by Leonard Baity in NC. Love the rifle, awesome bean field gun. As for the load, proceed with caution of course. I started with 66 gr of Retumbo and worked my...

Retumbo and 140 Bergers. My rifle consistently holds .4 MOA. Very effective at longer ranges. Killed two does at tick over 560 yds a couple of years ago and neither moved out of their tracks. Fantastic caliber and load

I run Retumbo in my Win Mag as well with 140 Bergers. Good velocity and accuracy. Hits like a hammer on deer.

264 WM is a hammer. Berger 140's are just plain nasty on deer sized game, which is all I can speak to. Little hard on barrels, but the 264 has been a favorite amoung the old school western hunters for years. You can also get good brass by pulling 7mm mag down too from Norma.

Hey Dan. Good Wife you have there! There are I am sure several good manufacturers out there. I have owned K&P (now out of business I believe), Shillen, Broughton and most recently Krieger. The K&P's shot great as well as the Broughton. Shillen was ok. I have had what I consider outstanding...

Hello All, I have been to Ohio bow hunting deer for the past three years. Each year I have hunted on private land in Knox Co. where I have been able to obtain permission to hunt from a local farmer. Great guy, but his farm is mostly large fields with very few places to even hang a stand...
