[QUOTE="big-foot, post: 84687, member: 3829"] Overbore? Barrelburner? Maybe not, depends on how you load it, actually it reminds me of the 220 Howell. It's a shortened 30-06 case necked to .224 with a .400 long neck. IIRC it has a water capacity of 62 gr and it's designed for the 75 gr AMAX using really slow powders. It's purpose was to shoot cooler, lower pressure loads so you could sit in a varmint field and not burn up your barrel. But it still out performed the 220 Swift. [/QUOTE]
