Nice but in my case your just a little late- already went with the 300 Blk. I wish you luck, looks to be a fine cartridge.

I would like to see a top down photo of a magazine loaded with a few cartridges. Magazines are the universal problem for .223 based wildcats.
Nope, this is not boring at all. I will keep watching for updates.

Thank you guys for your support, I will keep this board updated with
the lastest Info. possible...
The member that mentioned the magazine Issue with some .223
based wildcats...Yes, I can be a Issue, but in my case it has not
become an Issue with all the magazines that have been tried so
far.
Most quality made magazines from Mil-Spec to Pmags have worked
well w/ the 6.5mm PCC cartridge thus far. We like to use the HK-416
German made mags because of the excellent COL of 2.3XX" it has and
the excellent build quality...Likewise, the PRI .223/5.56mm magazines
that also offer 2.3XX" COL and are well made (USA).
ASC magazine also offer a very good COL in the vicinity of 2.28X"
and they seem to be well made...as do some Mil-Spec. mags. all
of which are cost effective....
The Pmags which are very well made, offer the least COL of around
2.27X", however they are very reliable and can easily be modified
(or de-ribbed) for some of the bigger diameter .223 based wildcats
like the 7.62x40mm WT.
Thanks Guys.

Another boring wildcat?....
Not if it runs through PMAG's it ain't!
I will say the 6.5 interests me more than the 7.62 (Blackout) for my intended uses.
Good work so far, keep us up to date.
The .300 Blackout is a good round esspecially for tactical uses...
It can also be effective on wild game like Deer and Hogs out to
say 100 yards or so, It is geared more for close range situations.
The 6.5mm PCC round is more of a true Intermediate/Longer Range
cartridge with great accuracy and excellent selection of high BC pro-
jectiles with energy levels of 1,000 ft/lbs out to 300 meters and
beyond especially from mid-length and longer barrels...
So It's really dependant on how/what you Intend to do with the
round etc...
How about posting a cartridge drawing with dimensions or at least a loaded round standing next to a 223 for comparison?

That's a good idea. I would like to see comparison pictures.
