[QUOTE="jpfrog, post: 2513712, member: 32525"] I did, in post #39. ([URL]https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/reloading-for-the-new-277-fury-from-sig.301206/post-2512939[/URL]) You can also look at this ([URL]https://www.gunsandammo.com/editorial/277-sig-fury-cartridge/457153[/URL]), as one example, I'm not going to give you a full Google summary, but a quick search yields dozens of results. Below are some excerpts from it: "No matter how often anyone states their action is "strong enough", never shoot the .277 SIG Fury in a rifle that wasn't expressly designed for high-pressure ammunition.

Each box of ammunition comes with a large warning printed so that those of us tempted to re-barrel grandad's deer rifle will know in advance that 80,000 psi will destroy "Old Faithful" in short order." Demonstrably wrong my rear. I've sited 2 articles where it says don't do it in your rifle unless you SPECIFICALLY bought a Sig that was built to withstand the pressure. What have you sited?
