Anybody try anything like that?? Thinking I might try and see if it would work? Brass would be 38/357 or 256 Winchester. Open up a .223 bolt head and surface cut to get the proper depth so the extractor would pick up the "rimmed case". Will be a rimmed 20 VT (short) necked down to 17. Already got the VT "short" by pushing the shoulder back .200 on a rimmless case. Just thinking of a "rimmed" version.
Inital plan/thoughts were to go Martini action/rifle for the rimmed case. Model 25 Savage uses a rimmed case for the Hornets. Never seen one but the extractor must be in the boltbhead?
Real curious to see if it would work on a Model 10 action. Could even go with a 44 Special or Mag case and build from there for a bigger Wildcat. Now I'am on the hunt for a couple of .223 bolt heads to work with.
