A few years ago. I heard of a wildcat based on the .303 britsh necked out to 358 but I have never seen any data concerning loads for it .Apparently they were popular in the Northern territory of Australia.years ago but I have never met any one who used one!I have seen a photo of one.So I would be gratefull for any info bewildered

The cartridges are what caught my eye cuz their rimmed 6.5mm, 7mm, and 300brm.

Search around the forums, probably in the Aus/NZ section. I saw information on possible sources for such here in Australia. Users (old forums) BwanaBob and Con had suggestions. From my notes: "Simplex still list forming dies for 303/33, not sure about reamers but Sprinter may be the go."

Case capy. would be about the same as the .358, but the .303 guns are likely proofed at lower pressures, so performance would be a bit below the .358. In short, suitable for all non-dangerous game.
