A .378 Wby necked down to .22 with darn near a whole year's supply of powder in each cartridge. I really don't know if this is a put-on or not.

oh my

if i ever have too much money, ill get one of those, or maybe make my own cartrige up. like .22-.50BMG or something or even neck it down to .17, that would be a sight to behold

WOW! :shock:

 

[pigeonhunter]

Didn't Ackley do a .22-378?

 

[wudjalike2no]

i think that is from an ackley manual

 

[Pat T]

yup- P.O. Ackley had a two volume set of books out years ago detailing many cartridges, factory and wildcats. This was one of them. Whoever was doing it was trying to set a new velocity record, used a barrel with no rifling according to the writeup. And you thought the .220 Swift torched barrels!!!

Now really, you would think this would blow a gun up

Ya never know. Maybe the barrel was forged by elves. They're good at that kinda thing, ya know.

In any barrel, you'd maybe get a lifespan of a box of ammo before you had to get a new barrel.
