[QUOTE="P7M13, post: 1917944, member: 94154"] Yeah, I read this one before. Several threads discuss the 10% being on the light side to get the sharp shoulders for the AI angles. I've worked up a few cases of different powder charges to see which one does the job best. Yeah, I agree, my initial powder estimate was way high. Not sure what you mean about euro or US chamber cut - does that pertain to throat/lede? Except as a parent case, it's nothing like the original Swede, so does it matter? Yes, agree on a single firing to get a sharp shoulder. Had I thought about this when I dropped the rifle off to be rechambered, I would have ordered that along with my custom dies. Fourteen to sixteen weeks lead time for hydraulic die. Sigh. This would be my fourth wildcat and with the prior three, all the brass was fire-formed. Alas... Millenial attitudes pervade my thinking -- I want brass NOW! LOL. [/QUOTE]
