[QUOTE="DUCKMAN11, post: 2634670, member: 122313"] I got a guy at work who is head over heels for this new 8.6 blackout. Every time he mentions it I say "you mean a shorter 338fed"...... he gets ****y..... I get a laugh. I know they are not the same thing but I'd argue it's the 338 equivalent of 6.5cm vs 260rem. I'm not sure if I feel comfortable shooting anything with a 1:3tw but it's definitely "out of the box" thinking. Sammi keeps the average Joe from blowing his face off and the average Joe makes up 90% of the shooting populous. So unless the Sammi guidelines are changed then WE as handloaders and wildcaters are the ones who are going to have to breathe new life into the "old" cartridges. [/QUOTE]
