In THIS PIC, and from my knowledge---the .550 Magnum is a full length, straight-walled, .460 WBY "basic" case. If that is true, what cartridge is the .600 Overkill based on?

The .600 Ok is based on the .600NE with a belt added instead of a rim. I get about 225 grs of water on a once fired case.-Rob Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers to do incredibly stupid things- AH (1941)- Harry Reid (aka Smeagle) 2012 Nothing Up my sleeves but never without a plan and never ever without a surprise! | |||
