Calling all shooters
Things have gotten a little slow in here, so I figured I'd pose a question to all the rifle guru's in here.
What defunct (read non production) cartiridge would you like to see come back into mainstream use?
OR, If you think you have a better idea for a wildcat (assuming all the requisite tools and machining capabilities) cartridge, what cartridge would you modify to create a better performer?
Feel free to answer either or preferably both in as much detail as possible.
I'll start out.
Defunct: .244 Remington was a production cartidge in the 60's and 70's that was a sweet target shooter. It came back into production in the late 80's to early 90's as the 6mm Remington. I would like it back in it's original form because it was a hotter, harder hitting, flat shooting cartirdge.
Wildcat: I always wondered what a .338 Winchester magnum would do if one necked it down to .27 (7mm). In essence turn the .338 into a flat shooting long range cartridge.
