I kind of want to get my neck sizing die for my .22-250 out and run a 6.5 creedmoor case through it now

Imagine what it could do with some 62 gr sierra's

I guess I'm not familiar with that bullet, is it a .20 cal??

Winner winner chicken dinner!!!  :tup:

The boys at Defensive Edge Rifles have been developing a 20 caliber version of their "Terminator" line and came up with what they are calling the 204 Terminator which is a 260 Rem necked down to .20 cal with the same shoulder angle as their other Terminators.

It's a given the barrel life probably won't be much over 600 rounds but shooting those 20 cal 55gr Bergers 4100fps and maybe more, should be a lot of fun and I can only imagine what it'll do to a coyote or groundhog. :yike:
I'm thinking measurably more, as long as a sturdy jacketed bullet is used👍
Can't wait for results!

They've built a test/shop rifle and in preliminary testing they were launching the 55gr Bergers at almost 4100fps and hadn't pressured out yet.  They played with some 40gr Vmax and were sending them downrange at over 4500 with no pressure signs.  The Vmax doesn't have a particularly robust jacket so I was a little surprised they even made the trip to the target.

Using a 1-8tw Krieger barrel on this build and it's not something they regularly make so it could be a few months waiting for the barrel but I think they're going to order 4-5 barrels to help speed the order up and keep a couple in stock for future builds.

I can't wait to see what it does to a  coyote but I realllllllllly can't wait to shoot a Rock Chuck with this thing.  I'm guessing it'll be rather messy. :yike:

Can you get it to 4700FPS?  :dunno:
