How about a quick, easy, Friday game of "Guess that Cartridge"?

Extra points if you can guess the bullet too.

I don't know any of those new fangled contraptions. Smokeless powder is a passing fad, anyway.

Ok, I see a 30-06 and a .223/ 5.56mm.

I think... The rest are contraptions.

Yup Those two and others center fire.

First post gets it. Alright, I guess that was pretty easy, my cartridge selection is kind of pedestrian these days.

You got the ARC and Grendel, close enough on the .308 ( it's 150gr fmj factory AAC). Goose eggs on the rest though. Midway just grays out the tips of their Hornady blems in the product page depictions btw, when you actually get them they are red just like normal Hornady bullets.

Thanks for the laugh, Brother! I needed it. I haven't laughed since the end of May!!!

Well, I got 4 out of 7 on the cases--but I don't own the other three...But, with those 4 you could hunt anything in North America.

Bullets are Eld-ms and Ablrs

There we go, close enough, other than the three already guessed, the 7mm PRC has a 180gr eld, the. 30-06 has a 190gr ABLR, the 6.5 CM a 142gr ABLR, and the 5.56 is a 77gr OTM AAC factory load.
