MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted yesterday at 04:07 AM The weak point will always be the case in some way. I don’t see all the big companies testing for over a year jumping into this new design not knowing for sure where it stands. seekins, Christianson, fierce, Aark, and more are all offering 7 Backcountry for 2025.

I think since the 6.5cm manufacturers have figured out that an endless stream of “new” will always attract enough of the market Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now with technology advancing at such a fast pace it makes it much more possible to create new cartridges and improve on old ones.

MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted 13 hours ago Ok so go shoot your hunting rifle 47 shots and tell me what your SD is. All barrels move as you shoot them. Allterra rifles did a pretty good job on the info but they are missing the point. it’s not about the speed or pressure it’s all about the short barrel. That’s all it’s about, not more accuracy or speed or distance. It’s about having a short 20 barrel with a suppressor for hiking into the hills and thick stuff and hammering a big coues at 300 yards with one shot and not dragging a 4 or 6 in longer gun through the brush. imagine a 20 barrel and folding stock in your pack. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My list is a lot shorter, even including those that I no longer own. 22lr, 22mag, 9mm, 45acp, .223, 6.5CM no longer own - .270, 30-06 I'm missing one in the 7mm-.30 family LoL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
