[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1312331"] Ha ha ha. You got that right. We now have steel case and aluminum case. I'm sure there are other alloys that would work. Brass is a convenient metal alloy that could be made at all 150 years ago. Made pretty consistently. Most of all for a very long time, brass has been relatively inexpensive. Use and reuse after creation does not overly harm the environment. One of the ultimate recyclable materials as is aluminum and steel. A multi-part case in order to strengthen the base but provide proper consistent release of the projectile seems plausible. Steel cases the size of CheyTac or 50 cal seems plausible. Steel cases are not a arena that as a wildcatter I would welcome. Like has been said, there are ways.... Right now, my contribution is to make shell holders for the Hubble Super Magnum. Followed by some forming process work and tooling/dies for that. Snuck in there is finishing my 375 Hubble Express and some research into alternative heavy material for jacketed bullets. [/QUOTE]
