[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1950358, member: 103947"] Everything I've researched and read about the Fury is pretty impressive, perfromance wise, especially from a 16" barrel. Pushing a 140 grain pill 3000 fps from a .308 size case is identical performance from a 6.5-284 with a 24" barrel. Pressures will be pretty high to make that happen. That means roughly 3300 fps from a 26" barrel. Not too shabby. Not really liking the looks of the case tho. My meaning for that is I'm sure it's gonna be costly. The stainless steel lower base band used for strength due to higher pressures will likely make this brass expensive. I think the .277 Fury will be a "Fad" cartridge. Sig will more than likely build a rifle for their ammo as well. Moving on to the 270 Nosler with a fast twist barrel built by Nosler, will be the .277 cartridge that, if any catches on, it'll be this one. More consumers that want a factory rather than custom rifle have a outlet for purchase as well as the factory 165 Nosler LR bullet option. I still believe both will be less popular than other current LR options but time will tell. It's gonna get new life for sure but what's gonna be the life expectancy, who knows. [/QUOTE]
