My mate has one and is chasing it, I told him to sell it and buy a 223.

His dealer can't order ammo for him?
I've sent off some emails and will let you know if I hear of anything.

Nothing down this way. If you buy something oddball like that you really need to be loading your own ammo.

They stretch the neck out from .224" to .458"? Or are they like the Blackout and just cut the front of the case off entirely?

with large cal big bores the best way was to chop the neck off WSM and go from there
I ran a 44 WSSM for a while and I used 25 WSSM necked up, thou i successfully made some from 7mm WSM brass

I had no trouble running 265gr at 2400fps from the 6lb mod 70. Recoil was rather brutal.
