Howdy Guys, I was just wondering if there was such a critter as a 221 Fireball ack imp.

Thanks

No I haven't. To be honest I just happened to remember seeing it the other day when I was looking for something else.

Sure - But why ruin a great little cartridge?

Ever since Lil'Gun hit the market the .221FB got Ackley velocity without having to blow out the case taper.

My 21" Hart barreled .221 shoots a 40gr B-Tip @ 3,600 tf/sec with a scant 17.0gr of Lil'Gun. Lets see Ackley improve on that.
