[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 680511, member: 5302"] For rifles, there's at least one "magnum" designated round whose head diameter's .473" so it'll work in a standard .30-06 size bolt face and it's a belted case. Tried to find others Googling around the i-net but didn't. 'Tis Roy Weatherby's .240 Wby. Magnum; [url]http://www.stevespages.com/jpg/cd240weatherbymagnum.jpg[/url] And in the rifle magnum ammo chart's "pipsqueak" column, there's the .22 Winchester Magnum. There's other rimmed cartridges used in rifles that have "Magnum" in their name, but they originated in the handgun world. [/QUOTE]
