Thanks Mick. Didn't take better eyes just someone smarter.

Now that you can see them, what do you think of them (In the context of the original post)?

I don't have an opinion or clue, one way or the other.

Mich, Confused would be a word that comes to mind. Looking at the picture the names leave me confused. Can't see how the larger cases fit in a suppressed weapon not to mention the shoulder/neck area of the 223 Magnum.

I will just leave myself and let people with more brain cells than I have figure it out.

Glad that's sorted. figured a full res image would be overly prepared for the old timers.


The 223wsm is in the start of testing, there is only 2 others were looking at to build, the 223spc with 80gn subsonic ammo loads is a neat pill, and will be tested further. Then I want to take a look at the 223-06 were forming now.

There concepts, plain and simple.


none of the magnum cases are being looked at as potential 416 cartridges. Only the short case items, such as the 223spc.

Sounds interesting but what is your goal with this new wildcat N51lDr1v3r?

A managed recoil hk416 for some of our younger guest to our machine gun range, a few of the 12yo's have a hard time holding onto a MP5 and the 416 at full song is out of the question.

Good luck with your project.

Thanks, reamer and gauge order is in, we have some NOS colt HBAR 223 barrels that should work great for the spc re-chamber. I just hope we have enough gas to operate the piston, if this proves successful we might convert one of our L85's to run this 223spc.

I don't care much for our generic name, if anyone has any neat ideas for the name let me know.

5,6*45 looks promising easy to find cases to
