I'm no expert on anything to do with cartridge design ( I leave that up to people with far more time n money lol ) but of the necked up wildcats I've had, most perform well above their weight, some include the 6mm 204 ( awesome fun cal & Wallaby killer ) 30-06 Terminator Improved Max ( a 280ai necked up & doing a 178 @ 2975fps boomfa ) & the 30arx ( a 6.5 Grendel popped up to 30cal ) & they all kick arse

Yes wildcatting generally means throwing logic out the window to some extent, I have a few in the safe but in the same breath its usual to try and get some improvement somewhere. I just don't see any gain in this case. ( see what I did there)
