[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1535684, member: 13632"] What doomed the 264 was how it was throated in the original release, it was throated specifically for a dual diameter bullet so the throats were super short but the one an only bullet that would shoot was this bullet which was essentially a bore rider design. I know one guy who has one and you literally can not use anything but the original factory ammo. This is in contrast to how Hornady has brought chambering, they full on support them with after sales, actually just good business not really marketing. I think the 264 would have crushed it if it had been released without it being designed to have only one source of bullets and ammo. All the guys I know from that era wanted one so bad they couldn't stand it and everyone said it sucked! [/QUOTE]
