[QUOTE="DANTEC, post: 22998, member: 685"] Dear jackrabbit my point of view is first : make evidences that this cartridge works , not really difficult just need a barrel and some reload components. So I think that this is possible to make trials and even on 50 cal action it works for trial. just need to eject the case with a rod ( not fun but for trials that ok ) second : compare the results from several sources ( differents shooters diferents barrels makers diferents load and range ) as soon as the two first point are ok and if the results are good enought I see any problem to use this round . at the begining of the 338 LAPUA mag only one maker make the loaded round ( now just four ) and that a quite popular round , 408 can do the same just need to make evidence of the quality of this round without any amazing adds and virtual informations on the net just go to range and shoot with a minimum of technical knowledge . last point Military have lot of money and if something work, price is not really a problem as I have said previously, I can set a rifle or two in 408 Cheyenne for tests and trials I have a 3200 meter range so range is not a problem . wait for a proposal from the maker , and agree to share the results . Good shooting DAN TEC [/QUOTE]
