[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2828009, member: 27307"] It's doubtful that SAAMI or CIP will make this cartridge legitimate. It's been around for a long time and has been ignored for that length of time also. If these longer 6mm cartridges interest you then take a look at the .240 Weatherby or the wildcat .240 Gibbs which has a larger case capacity yet. I shoot the .240 Weatherby and have owned/shot a .240 Gibbs as well. Longer barrels and slower powders work quite well. I did build a 6-06 Ackley Improved which is fine but the .240 Weatherby is slightly more convenient with similar performance. Enjoy your search! :) [/QUOTE]
