[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2561212, member: 109862"] Thread resurrection alert! I’ve exhausted my gun budget for at least a year BUT I’m still very much wanting to build a wildcat rig someday hopefully not so far away. Question…any new developments with this 112 magnum target? It seems PERFECT for what I want to do (well one thing I want to do anyway) which is to build a .30 XC (as in .33 xc necked down / much the same as Kirby Allen’s .300 raptor and Jeff Broz’s .300 High country magnum). I don’t mind the single shot aspect and in fact it’s pointless to try building a repeater off a basic .338 lapua action for the xc cartridges…they’re way longer. But a single shot…no problem. Maybe buy a few barrels cuz…you know… 32 inch I’m thinking. One with a slow twist to try getting my 120 Barnes tac tx to 5000 fps (I get 4050 out of my 26 inch .300 win mag…could be doable) One with a medium twist (like 10) for all around performance testing up to the 225 eld m And maybe a fast twist to see how far the 250 a tip can reach. Just fantasizing at the moment but has anyone done this? [/QUOTE]
