[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 485404, member: 505"] Jmason, You can play with the throat and get different velocity results. But this is way out of the norm. You can tweek them a little but to retain any kind of accuracy there is just so much you can do with a cartridge. I have tried to be as nice and supportive as possible here to show comparables to other similar cartridges that show there is just no way safely these velocities can happen. I have never done the 6.5-300 winchester because there is just not much difference between the 264 winchester an STW so there was really not much need for me to. I have had aquaintances that have done it through the years and seen them shot over a chrono on my range. They shoot right between the 264 winny and STW in the 3300's max with safe loads. I am not on here to insult Oliver and that is the least of my intensions. I love to see young guys coming in so excited about the sport. We have far to few of them. I am just saying that he either has a very fast barrel like I have never seen or the chrony was messing up that day. [/QUOTE]
