Re: 6x70r
|
The 6x70R has been developed by Krieghoff and Romey to get a low pressure cartridge for insert barrel use in combination guns (mainly Drilling) on roe deer.
The mother cartridge is the old 6,5x70R. The case diameter is very small to get less stress on the system especially when itīs made of aluminium.
Second point was to have meat destruction as less as possible.
You can expect .75" groups at 100 yd even with the short drilling barrels.
cartridges are availabe at Norma and Romey.
