Ditto!

The 6mm PPC is a cartridge that I have always enjoyed which began as a wildcat and eventually went mainstream. Just a fascinating and extremely accurate little round.

38/45 Clerke.

I first read about the cartridge in the mid 1970's. Built an M1911 for it in the mid-1990's.

Not exactly a wildcat but .256 win mag. A close second is the eargesplitten loudenboomer.

That was a really cool round and concept. Just think, people thought the 357 Sig was a new concept.

Wild

This one:

Not exactly a wildcat, more like a repurposed set of components.
A BMG bullet seated in a. 50-70 case. Fired at about 900 fps through a fast twist barrel,(1-8")

The 300 Whisper. I have a healthy respect for Mr. J.D. Jones too...

I second post #11 338-06 AND 35 Whelen are two great wildcat cartridges.

6mm 40 degree Turbo. This begins as a modified 6.5 Grendel case. 5 fire forming loads fit inside a dime.

NCsmitty · May 31, 2014

6mm-284, and I have the reamer, new dies and a new 6mm A&B barrel blank setting around, but I've lost the motivation at this point.

The 7-30WATERS is not a wildcat cartridge as it is factory loaded.

My favorite is the 257ACKIMP.

Favorite wildcat

Not sure if these are considered wildcats but they are the most fun for me. .256win mag, 7mm tcu, .30 herrit, 7-30 waters. I really enjoy reforming the brass and working up loads.

El Viejo · Jun 1, 2014

7 30 Waters started out as a wildcat, and then was produced by Federal for a time as a factory load. I'm not sure if they're still producing it or not.
