W.C said the Remington rifle is all Bushmaster parts, No muzzel brake, Mag is pined to 4rds. They ship it out to get the camo put on.

HOT HOT HOT

I just got some pics from Wildcatter of the new Remington Ammo.

These are a first anywhere, no one else has seen these. (Wildcatter wanted me to make sure you knew this)

They are as good as he could get right now with a cell phone in his hotel room, but he said he will try and get better pics later.

Full round, Bullet, Expanded Bullet. (He said they are bonded bullets and they are showing 97% weight retention)

GunNut knows I teased the Remmy folks about the holes in the end, that they might whistle and that I was going to call the "Whistlers"..wink

Hey wildcatter were you around for all the Smith and Wesson guys getting hauled off by the feds?

Hey Gunny, the Remmy Production Chief told me he'd email me with a more diffident date next week, but right now, and I can only loosely say it (as in no confirmation), maybe in the spring. When I get better affirmation I'll post it.. BTW.. looks like I'll be flying in to Atlanta and driving over to AL again, in about 2 to 3 weeks, so let's set something up with the Bushmeister and a couple of our 450 Fellow Travelers and harass him into cook'en up some 450-Piggy Soufflé. I think he's out hunting the piggies right now so he can't say no, so we all should make the command decision and volunteer him.."All-in-favor, raise your hands".. "The Eyes Have it", Bushmeister's AO soon..wink

i'm interested in the Hornady 230gr FMJ's. I like punching holes in steel plates and engine blocks, etc. the ftx's dont do much in that department......
what are the chances that they will actually produce them? the 325gr dangerous games would be nice too.

That sounds great. I'll need a date pretty quick if it's during the week. I'm travelling quite a bit for work.
