Out of all the calibers I own, I keep track of my 300 blk. the most. Such a cool rifle you can go from the equivalent of a .45 acp carbine to a full power rifle load with the change of a magazine.

It was a good round. Last week.It's a good round and that's why it's popular so enjoy it.
That's right! I had forgotten that it's all the rage now!It was a good round. Last week.
6mm ARC is where it's at, man.
Yup, just noticed that message tonight(wasn't there yesterday when I checked). Ordered stuff Tuesday morning hoping to have it for this weekend, guess not.I noticed today one of my pending orders has : Please note: Order processing delay of 3-5 business days from date your order is placed The other one doesn't.
Just poking a little fun at the trendy cartridges. I was once guilty of buying the trend as well. Anyone remember the 22 CHeetah or the 7mm STW? I had both and had a lot of fun with them. Experimenting with new cartridges and new guns is what keeps our sport alive.6.5 creed has been around for about 10 years now. it is not going anywhere. the same can not be said for the new 6mm ARC, although i am not going to lie, it looks like it is pretty good. but in that system, 5.56 77gr fine too without the caliber change.

Even Meatloaf would be disappointed with my results, 1 out of 3.
First order took over a month just to get a tracking number with a day+ added on to get the actual tracking.
My second order(placed the day after my first) was in my hands in 3½ days after ordering, go figure.
God damn 1st world problems.
That's okay. When I ordered the 6.5, I ordered a 22 Creedmor as well. Not seeing the latter on target sports though.Just poking a little fun at the trendy cartridges.

My next rifle, which I'll be building this summer, will be in the 280 Remington with an Ackley Improvement. Good times indeed.

Agreed. I've had excellent luck with this stuff in my Glock G44, Ruger Mark IV and M&P 15-22. My kids send 100s of rounds of this stuff downrange each range visit, and it's been flawless so far. So…I probably just jinxed myself…lol.Aguila Super Extra 22lr back in. Just picked up a case because 1.) it’s hotter than mini mags 2.) it runs flawless through all my 22lr platforms and 3.) it’s more than $100 cheaper than mini mags.

Sweet, just checked my last order.
It went from no delay, to 3-5 business days delay, to 5-7 business days delay. If this shit keeps up maybe I'll have it time to celebrate the next Halley's Comet fly-by.
Or BotachAre you sure you didn't accidentally order from Optics Planet?
OH BOY, OH BOY, OH BOY!!!!!!!!
I just got an email that my Mystery Gift has been shipped!!!
Just noticed it’s back in stock though only about 12 bricks left or so. Some complained of the 240 gr cases expanding in wheels guns. Other claimed the 300gr was the way to go. Hot and heavy stuff.How is the 300gn SJFP PPU .44mag...?
Scratch that. 7 left.Just noticed it’s back in stock though only about 12 bricks left or so. Some complained of the 240 gr cases expanding in wheels guns. Other claimed the 300gr was the way to go. Hot and heavy stuff.
