If you keep it up Bruce, I’m gonna have to get one.
now there is a man of good taste and great forethought.
now it is just a matter of convincing bob.
on a more serious note.
if you find accessing rws 9.3x64 brass, consider 338 win mag necked up to 9.3mm.
going this route allows the use of any 7mm mag, 300 mag, 338 mag action and boltface with just a new barrel.
they are all 30/06 length actions.
get a barrel 0.650" at the muzzle to give sufficient weight to handle the recoil.
0.600" works for carrying, but not as well for shooting, and the gun could be a little muzzle light for pointing.
give the chamber 1/2 degree leade as opposed to 1 1/2 degrees common today.
this does make a difference to pressures and loads.
for dies, when pacific tool and gauge make your chamber reamer, have them make a matching min fls die reamer as well.
chamber the sizing die reamer with the appropriate reamer first, and then use it as a rougher for the barrel chamber, prior to using the finish chamber reamer.
then use the chamber reamer to chamber the seating die.
it would not be a surprise to learn that ptg already has drawings for such a reamer, but if not altering a 338 reamer would be a breeze.
bullets are easy to access, and h4350 is a good powder to start with, particularly with heavier bullets.
swift bullets will be your friend at these speeds.
