.264 Win Mag

[Danie Lombard .243]

Hi al die skiet manne.

Is hier van jul op die forum wat het 'n geweer in die kaliber .264 Win Mag? Ek stel al geruime tyd belang in die kaliber. Sien dat Remington 'n Sendero het wat gekamer is in die kaliber.

Enige raad en hulp oor die kaliber sal waarder word. Hy lyk soos my tipe kaliber.

Jy het seker al gedoen, maar hier is n paar stukkies wat die moeite werd is om te lees........

The .264 Winchester Magnum caused plenty of excitement when it was introduced in 1958. The color advertisement read: "The .264 Winchester Magnum, Its Makes A Helluva Noise And Packs A Helluva Punch." And it did. Then came the 7mm Remington Magnumto steal all the thunder and the .264 Magnums gathered dust on dealer's shelves. Which is sad since Winchesters cartridge does everything they said it would do. In the 26" barrel of the Model 70 Westerner, that is. But shooters wanted a shorter barrel and they og it in the Model 70 Featherweight. They also got plenty of muzzle blast, plenty of recoil, and .270 Winchesterperformance. Some consider it to be a deer cartridge at most while the opposing team praises the .264 as an excellent elk cartridge. Actually, both are correct when bullets of proper weight and construction for the job at hand are used. A 140 grain spitzer loaded to 3100 fps in a 26" barrel delivers almost a ton of residual energy at 300 yards. It sectional density is about the same as that of the 160 grain 7mm, and 190 grain .30 caliber bullets.

Dankie ou FM,

Jy is ons eie jaracal info ghuru.  Ja, die .264 vreet lekker by die keel van die loop. Maar daai roer gooi 'n laaaang pil lekker vinnig en vrek ver so plat soos 'n laser.  Net die ding wat ek nodig het vir die kompitisies.
Of sal ek eerder se nog 'n gat jeuk roer.

Is hier manne wat met die .264 skiet/jag?

Danie,
my pa het een gehad, n Win mod 70. Ons het altyd gepraat van die "mincer" want hyt kwaai vleis gemors.
Plat geskiet- ja. Maar die loop hou net nie.
As ek moet self kies sal dit een van die ander 6,5's wees.

Sal maar liefs my lus vir die staal vreter moet eenkant toe skuif. Maar ek kan jul verseker dat ek honger was vir die kaliber.

Klink my hy's soos 'n sport motor. Lekker vinnig en als wat goed is, maar duur op instandhouding.
