[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1761562, member: 69192"] I'm not interested in building a rifle that will reach or top 5000fps, however I enjoy reading a thread such as this one; there's lot of information to be gleaned from it. I don't understand the logic behind building such a barrel burning "rocket launcher"; however I do understand the logic behind, [I][U]"Just because I want one!!"[/U][/I] I am curious if what [U][I][B]sturner [/B][/I][/U]has written here will fit/fill the bill for what the OP really wants to do. Shouldn't this cartridge/velocity/trajectory meet the distance requirements that the OP is looking for out to 500 yards without breaking the bank or wiping out a barrel even before one gets started????? Not to mention the bullet/s falling apart issue! If I were looking to find the right bullet to work in such a rifle I think that I would be talking with the folks at "Hammer" before I even started such a project; also J E Custom makes some very good points, and.....I find his input to be "spot on" when he posts something.
