I tweaked the die length this morning to make the neck slightly longer

This 9.5x62R case is remarkably similar to the 303 Brit
Will feed and extract like a dream
228259

9.5x62R case capacity is 70 grains W760
to base of the neck

So same capacity as the 9.3x74R in a shorter fatter case but starting with a 45-90 case which is readily available

My 375 Wildcat idea is taking shape

45-90 brass annealed and run into a 375 H&H sizing die shortened 11mm

The 45-90 brass grew 1mm longer in the forming
So I have named it 9.5x62R because i...

Work in progress on buying the 303-22

The 303 case family is generally bigger than what's currently considered safe in a contender but it would bolt in on an encore

If the twist was right it...

Here's a nice 375 wildcat

375 Renner
Cut a short chamber with standard 375 H&H chamber reamer
Make brass from 45-90 which is actually reasonably available
Shorten standard 375 H&H sizer die...

That would be nice if 307 brass grew on trees
I have about 120x 307 cases and those from 3 different sources. I would gladly snap up any 307 brass and wildcat it

6mm-307 would just use 243...

Never had separation problems
30-30 just lacks boiler room
I just wanted a little more horsepower

blip I do like the 30-30 case and have two single shot 30-30s and four other 30-30 family single shots.
But it is pretty limited in case capacity and that is where the 303 and 30-40 case really come...

I sure do understand

I could make a rimless extractor for the 307 I have just build and run it with standard 308 brass
But I like single shot rifle and have stayed true to the rimmed cases
...

The great benefit of the 6.5 is accuracy.
I'm guessing a 303-6.5 in a bolt action LE is not really a great platform to get the best out of that wildcat

The 303-25 was very popular in Australia...

I'm also chasing buying a 303-22 complete rifle that comes with brass, dies and the chamber reamer that it was cut with

That's an interesting wildcat

I also have 303-25 dies and could make a...

My wildcat leaning is towards a 375 because of reasonable bullet options
But it needs to be rimmed

So I was thinking a 9.3x74R case necked up to 375
A nice sized good quality case but not as...
