This past week on gunbroker I noticed a bolt action rifle sold in what they listed as 444 Rimless caliber. Which come to find out what it was is a 30/06 cartridge with the shoulder and neck blown out straight walled then trimmed to 2.225'', 444 Marlin length. Then I presume ran through a 444 Marlin sizing die. I thought that was very interesting. Do any of you have any experience with or seen a rifle such as this?
Sarco currently has 93 Mauser actions for $100, they aren't as stout as the 98 Mausers but they would be fine for the pressures this caliber would incur. I wonder where a guy could get a barrel chambered for something like this? It would have to headspace on the case mouth. Seems like a neat build to me.
