Graf's is selling 423 Dakota brass and advertising it as the basis for wildcatters' dreams. What would you build on this case?

SPECIAL PURCHASE! Supplies are limited!
Manufactured by Lapua, these cases feature a ".423 Dakota- Lapua" headstamp.
This is perfect brass for adventurous wildcatters looking for a large case to play with. They're a rimless design, having a .585" head and are 2.475" in length as they arrive at your loading bench. After that, they can be anything you want with a little Imperial and some elbow grease.
This is new, unprimed brass. This is not loaded ammunition.

Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..

siberiaWell I think given the plethora of boolits available I would go .375". You could load it right up with say some 250-270 grners and have them screaming out, tons of really fast and heavy recoil. It would be a blast to shoot and smack big animals down at a fair range. Or load it down with some big heavy slugs and have a sensible rifle. Easy to neck down too.
