[QUOTE="jkwright, post: 1890931, member: 100090"] Probably not worth the effort but you could do a 7mm or 30 cal wildcat off of weatherby's 6.5 RPM. It would have a significant bump in case capacity over all other standard bolt face cartridges. The 6.5 rpm has a case capacity of 83 grns h20, 280 AI is 68 grns, 300 win mag is 94 grns. Probably makes more sense to open up the bolt face than make a wildcat off a brand new cartridge with unproven brass but its a possibility. [/QUOTE]
