New little cartridge


Recommended Posts

New lil deal I've been playing with . Kinda a replacement for my hornet . .22tcm. odd little proprietary cartridge from a company over here . Could have been sooo much more but they tried to make its whole selling point the fact you should shoot in in both their pistol conversion and their rifle with the same mags or something...idk really handicapped it..anyway a company stared making AR pistol barrels for it pretty cheap and thought it would be fun. Few head aches leaking the quirks of blow back gas system guns , tried making brass from old .223 ( I have BUCKETS of it) which wasn't terrible till I then learned about the importance of neck wall thickness ... Actually got some pretty high velocity from this little guy with only 12 GR of pistol power out of a 8.5" barrel and a 40 gr vmax

Next to a .223

Be nice if they would hurry up and start making longer barrels for this thing ... More reason for me to get a lathe I guess because a bolt gun chambered in this should be too hard with a .223 doner rifle and with say a 18" barrel, should stomp all over.22 hornet ....

Funny though , I got into this little guy because I wanted something with a little.more power the .22lr/mag for calling smaller predator at 50yd and in and didn't want .223 power/ velocity....and here I am  🤣
