    Wildcat appreciation thread

    Finally doing my first wildcat. So I thought, can we do a wildcat appreciation thread? There have been a few on the forum have there not?
    Anyways, after mulling over ideas and procrastinating for years, I finally came up with something and ordered a reamer from Manson last year. Some back and forward discussion about minor details with Ray Gross of Manson Reamers, then design was finalised. After about 4-5 months it finally arrived earlier this year, and then it sat on my desk staring at me while I procrastinated some more. Now I'm about to get it to Jaco Goosen this weekend to run it into a spare barrel I have, and take the next step to make it into something that goes bang.
