Has anyone seen the new Remington catalog they have a new 30 cal that is suppose to match the ballistics of the 308 for there R15.
From the catalog.
Now for the first time, RemingtonR brings you 30 caliber hunting performance
in a lightweight R-15 modular repeating rifle. Our new 30 Remington® AR
cartridge produces big-game-dropping ballistics similar to the venerable
308 Win. with pressures perfectly suited to our lightweight R-15 platform.
Comparable terminal power was once only available in the heavier AR-10
platform. This cartridge is the ultimate synergy of our ammunition and
firearms expertise, as its development forever changes the shape of both
categories, creating a revolutionary new big-game hunting system. Our
lightweight R-15 platform – its minimal recoil, rapid follow-ups, easy
maintenance and inherent accuracy – chambered for a cartridge that will
put down deer-sized game with gusto. This year’s offerings include the most
trusted big-game bullet of all time, Core-Lokt, the pinnacle of polymer-tipped
accuracy, AccuTip and an economical UMC loading. As a cartridge, the 30
Remington AR breaks new ground. In conjunction with our R-15 modular
repeating rifle, it marks the beginning of a
new era in the deer woods of
North America.
