[QUOTE="Swamplord, post: 2099510, member: 2460"] not taking sides here as we are all family here, family of misfits, lol Elkaholic has a valid reason for stating his velocity predictions as I'm pretty sure he has vigorously looked indepth into his project before going public some of you may not have noticed that he mentioned a case of new design, so I'm guesing he's drawn up something a bit bigger in diameter than the SAUM/WSM cases, (like what I've done with my Razor cartridges) and will have RCC make the brass with a thickened case head along with their proprietary inner case design that adds velocity, a case of that design with 86 gr of capacity could very well achieve his velocity predictions, which he clearly stated several times were estimates btw ! This I back up with experience as I have been working with a 30 caliber 85 gr capacity case based on the Lapua/Norma brass cut down to 2" with a trim to length @ 1.990" , with Norma brass I got 87 gr h20, Lapua brass is at 84 gr and the final product fromm RCC is right at 85 gr anyway, all the velocities Elkaholic predicted were attainable with my cartridge and I'm confident his design will fare the same [/QUOTE]
