snowman243 Super Rockchucker
Does anyone have the dimensions of the 243 Super Rockchucker based on the 30-06 case ? What difference would there be between it and the 6mm-06 Ackley Imp ? Both would be 240 Wby's with cheaper brass.

SnellstromI just did a quick internet search and can't find a drawing of it however what I did find out is that it is merely a 25-06 necked down to .243.
Pacific has reamers for it and an A.I. version as well so I'm sure they could furnish you a cartridge drawing.
Sounds like fun!

snowmanSnellstrom Thanks for the reply. I have found a couple references that indicate it is not the std 25-06 case but an improved version. I found one reference that claimed it was merely another name for the 6mm-06 Improved. Being a wildcat there may well be several versions ??
