>tens of millions wasted testing 6.8 SPC>when .35 Remington was a thing all along and would have the same ballistics with a spitzer bulletBro why
>>64432127Graft.
.45 FYM
>>64432127You're just repeating what every boomer said about .222 Rem vs. .223 Rem. You are now the object of your derision, you have become boomboom.
>>64432223Thats not how you use "what blew up"
>>64432127For years I've said 35rem would be instantly resurrected if put into an AR. Somebody make it happen
>>6443309835 Remington has a weird case head diamater a little smaller than 308, and its COAL is also nonstandard - inbetween 5.56 and 308. The 358 Winchester, however, is based on a 308 case and can be loaded to 2.8” (though I’ve never seen it loaded to that length). The 8.6 blackout really should have been 358 in caliber. Take the 358 win, cut the case down a bit and load a 358 VLD in there. This gives you heavier subs and better short barreled efficiency, which is one of the main merits of the blackout cartridges. Aaaand the supers should be running at 80kpsi.Picrel. Look at those stubby ass bullets.Also, 350 legend is kind of just 35 Remington crammed into an AR15. Same caliber, similar energy.
Why even made Fury or any of the other meme rounds when .270 British existed? Because money and power.
>>64432127It's the worst .358.>would have the same ballistics with a spitzer bullet6.8spc has about the same external ballistics as 150gr M2 30-06. The .358 trajectory match to M2 ball is .358 Norma Magnum shooting a 250gr at 2750fps. 35rem maxes out 200gr at 2200fps.6.8spc is also shit, I'm not saying matching M2 ball is good, it's just a useful benchmark for demonstrating how ballistically inferior 35rem is considering it's case size.
>>64432127Niggas will do anything but use real fuckin NATO>>64432223Orange man sanctioned a zigger oil company
>>64432223>"stop talking about weapons, talk about ukraine"Even the worst caliber opinions like OPs are more welcome here than daily ukraine news.
>>64433219Uh, fuck off tourist?
>>64433165> 6.8spc has about the same external ballistics as 150gr M2 30-06What?!?! Load them up with bullets of equal BC and 30-06 will have like 1000fps or something crazy like that over the 6.8. The 6.8’s external ballistics are just shit. Not only is the overbore ratio super low (low sectional energy), but the bullet shape is very blunt. The ogive length IIRC is about 2 calibers - worse than 5.56 even.
>>64432127get you a 30-06 son, now that's a real man's bullet
>>64433225Damn I'm retarded, I had 6.5grendel in mind with the M2 ball comparison. Yeah 6.8spc is even worse.
>>64433165By the way, if anyone wants to know what the best .358 is, it's 35-284.
>>64433219>>64432223This is either a new glavset ops to devalue the phrase "what blew up" or you are a newfag tourist.
>>64433198What's a NATO? Are those the guys defending Israel at all cost because of the Holocaust™ and letting in all the immigrants into the West?
>>64433298That's like saying>my goyslop is so much better than your actual food!Back to /pol/
>>64433208FTFYSlavs and slav-adjacents dying by the hundreds every day is good news every day.
>>64433303Holy shit a Certified Holocaust™ Ultimate Defender (CHUD) in the wild! Wow.
>>64433428>REEE I HATE DA JOOS!>ACTUALLY NO I LOVE THEM!meds, NOW!
>>64433310Agreed, however it’s>/k/-weaponsNot>/k/-ukraine updates
>>64433132>Also, 350 legend is kind of just 35 Remington crammed into an AR15.350 legend is a proprietary copy of that wildcat made from unfinished/blown out 5.56 brass, changed just enough to make it incompatible with it.
>>64432127>6.8 SPCIt was cool in Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and that's all I care about.
>>64433562>>pls do not talk about our latest loss cumrad/K/ - WEAPONS>>64432127OP: WEAPONSEITHER YOU HAVE AN OPINION ON 35 REMINGTON, 6.8SPC, OR RELATED CARTRIDGES, OR YOU FUCK OFF.THERE'S A UKRAINE THREAD MADE EVERY MINUTE, FUCK OOOOOOOFFFF INTO ONE OF THOSE.FAGGOT
>>64433665u mad lol
>>64433562
>>64432127This turd got shilled so fucking hard by a lot of people who should have known better.
>>64433733It killed Bonnie and Clyde
>>64433757So did several other cartridges.>>64433733It's got the same reputation as 32special. One day I was trying to figure out why every fudd who has pushed 35rem on me has also pushed 32special, and then it hit me; cast bullets.There's no point arguing with such people or showing them something better, better cartridges drive bullets at higher speeds than their range-scavenged mystery meat cast bullets can stay together. But if you limit yourself to casting every bullet you fire, 32special and 35remington are the zenith of firearms technology.
>>64433733I remember all the shit DocGKR wrote talking the 6.8 up as the ultimate assault rifle cartridge and how it would replace 5.56 NATO.
>>64434236What looking at gel tests for over a decade does to a motherfucker
