A lot easier to size down from 220 Russian than 6BR.kickinback wrote: ↑Sat Jun 02, 2018 9:54 am Why the PPC over the BR?

No need to neck turn with the correct reamer.
Very efficient, I get 100% case fill.
Easy to tune.
Same speed with a 40gr V-Max as the BR with less powder.
Lapua 220 Russian is one of the strongest cases around, 25 reloads minimum.
See bullets hit through scope due to minimal recoil.
Extremely accurate.
Point and shoot to 300m.
The best part for me is the damage!!
230 in the face!

Re: New Varmint Gun
I built a 20 BR and with the same prjies I had to use 4 grains more powder to achieve similar velocity as the 20 ppc.Ho hum 4 grains of powder = more throat erosion (maybe)
The 20 BR is accurate no doubt but I do not think in the rifles I had/have it was better than the 20 ppc
I built the 20 BR to shoot 50’s and believe the 20 dasher a better proposition
