It's kinda like the word "whelm"....we've all been "overwhelmed" but I've never heard anyone say they was just "whelmed" and certainly I've never heard anyone being "underwhelmed" Take it from there. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

I say "underwhelmed" all the time. Use it for a synonym for disappointed with or to describe something that's pretty meaningless or something that I'm not impressed by. Ken | |||

What I mean, I suppose is what have you been underwhelmed with (cartridge wise)? ________________________________________________ Maker of The Frankenstud Sling Keeper Proudly made in the USA Acepting all forms of payment | |||

If I can just skip the next six posts after your first one, they've sooooo underwhelmed me think of cartridges with big holes & small bodies as being under bore as opposed to those with small holes & big bodies that were over bore. Things like the 358 Win, 6mm/222, 416 Taylor, 458 Win Mag & a heap of other similar to these. Steve. | |||

Wouldn´t the 9.3x62 be underbore? The 9.3x57 is another candidate and the 10.75x68 could be another one. | |||

30-30. Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too! Recent college grad, started a company called MK Machining where I'm developing a bullpup rifle chassis system. | |||

I think we're on a roll now.......and now that I think of it I've been very underwhelmed with the old 45-70!!! /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

Underbored means there is not enough energy in the powder charge to overcome the total barrel resistance to the projectile, which never became a projectile cause it got stuck in the barrel. roger Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!!

Underbore is what my wife claims I am. In reference to rifles, it is where a reduction in barrel length would increase the velocity, i.e., a 22 long rifle would see an increase in velocity by reducing the barrel length from 32" to 30" for example | |||

I can only think of one. The .35 remington. Don't get me wrong its a damn fine killer up close. But Its a bit weak for a .35 caliber. I think the .358 is about bottom line for .35 caliber velocity/performance. That said the damned old .35rem has killed scads of beasts. So maybe there is no underbore,just distances to far with certain calibers. NHbwana | |||

So does a perfect bore's bullet reach the end of the barrel and still be in the gun or does it fall out of the barrel. The only easy day is yesterday! | |||

A 270 in A 280 would be under bore.... _____________________________________________________ A 9mm may expand to a larger diameter, but a 45 ain't going to shrink Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened. - Winston Churchill | |||

A bewildering question like that on a 3 drink Saturday afternoon can be somewhat perplexing! Might need a little time to think about that. roger Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!!

Just about any pistol round? Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not out to get you.... | |||

Seeley Masker once told me any sporting cartridge where the powder charge is less than 40% of the bullet weight. The 22 Hornet is probably the best of the underbore cartridges, the 30-378Wbee the worst of the overbore offerings. JMHO Rich DRSS Knowledge not shared is knowledge lost... | |||

& by definition, every bullet weight in every caliber must have an ideal bore size to cartridge size ratio for any suitable powder, &... Oh hell who can be bothered but I reckon I've got the drift now Steve. | |||
