boom stick50-110 based wildcat
i think the 450-110 is a good gun cart combo (just shy of 458 win mag in a 24" barrel) but what about the 416-110 or 375-110? does anyone have one? would be a fun lever gun
if not i claim this my own wildcat all based on the 50-110 case
300 boom stick
338 boom stick
358 boom stick
375 boom stick
411 boom stick
416 boom stick
423 boom stick
430 boom stick (444 marlin bullet)
475 boom stick
you can call them the b.s. carts for short
what say you?
i also like the idea of the 338, 358, and 475 on the 50 alaskan so i'll claim that wildcat too
33 boom stick (338)
35 boom stick (358)
42 boom stick (423)
47 boom stick (475)
(the 375 416 alaskans have been done)

bigboredanBoom Stick,
the 475 0n the 50 Alaskan case has already been done. it's called the 476 GNR, it's made by Gary reeder.
if you go to
http://www.reedercustomguns.com, and look at the rifle called the master hunter, it's mine.

boom sticki went to his site but did not see it...the link did not work.
on his wildcats it was not listed...
the 475 gnr was a blown out 45-70
http://www.reedercustomguns.com/information/GNR_cartridges.htmwhat do you think of the idea of these carts?
i was thinking full length necked down for all the carts with a 35 ish degree angle...

boom stickwhile i am at it i also will claim the sharps straight 3 1/4 (sharps straight 120) with all diameters 475-30...now that would be cool
o.k. now i have a lifetime of load development in front of me
hmmmmmmm....i wonder what a 375-3 1/4 would do? hmmmmmm

Wildcat CrazyThe.50 Alaskan is the .348 Win. expanded to 50 caliber.
C-H4D lists the 40-348(.411),.416-348,and 43-348.
There has been at least 2 different .30-.348s .
I have a reamer list that lists the 7mm-348 and..35-348.
I haven't found any listing of a .475-.348.
Design them with a different shoulder angle or length and use the .50 Alaskan headstamped case and they are your wildcats.

yes but the 50-110 wildcats are still intact.

tiggertateBoom, they sound like a lot of fun in an Encore!
"Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson.

boom stickhelllllllllllyeah!!!!!!
the 375-110 will be great
starline is making 50-110 brass so no brass issues
it looks much longer than the 50 alaskan

boom stickcan someone use quickload and tell me what the 375-110 will do? sorry i do not have that program
the original is a straight taper type with a base diameter of .565" and a neck diameter of .528". Case length was 2.5" and COL was 3.2"
if these numbers are wrong let me know...i need to contact starline
whatever it is...that is a lot of "boom-room"!!!
thanks
