does anyone have any practical experience w/ this caliber yet. if what hornady says is correct, looks rather interesting.

Hmmm, another cartridge that folks will try to find.

I've not even seen any of the Hornady "whatever it's called" with the rubber tips for lever actions.

But hey, we have some .307 Winchester for sale.

Back to the still.

From what I have gathered it is another short/fat cartridge. Looks like a variation of the RSUM and Winchesters WSM cartridges, a 30-06 in a short chamber or a faster 308, which ever way one wants to look at it.

So, is it a sort of rimmed 284 Winchester necked up to thirty, or what?

The new edition of RifleShooter has a bit on it. The case measures 1.920" compared to a 308 at 2.015" and drives a 30 cal 150 gr bullet at 3000 fps. COL is the td 2.80" I assume. Their claim is Hornady is loading it and useing "new" powder and technology in their load. That means you won`t get factory velocity from your handloads at safe pressures.
