You mean 7mm Ultra?

Ultimate wildcat to me is .257 Roberts.

Sounds like a 7mm Allen mag....

Ultimate wild cat definitely has nothing to do with speed.....

That would be smoking! The 7.21 Firebird is the closest thing to it with a capacity of over 122 grains.

I still want a 458 that can throw a 600 gr VLD bullet at 2800 fps. :tup:

The 6.5's are so popular, why not a 6.5 ultra?

How about a 50BMG/458 that should get the 600 gr VLD bullet at up to 2800 fps.

At one time I wanted a .22 Cheetah.  Turned out the used action I set aside for it had the locking lugs galled badly.

Introducing the 14.9 SOP. Necked down from a 20mm vulcan casing, this round is capable of supersonic speed to 5400 yards, and lethal out to 3.5 miles.

Where ever you hide, this will find you.

This will decimate all.

I think that's mostly the it.  The big brass makers didn't make a run for a few years for it or chamber mass produced rifles in it.  Lots of guns that were previously wildcats but are now common.

the world of wildcat rounds is cool dont get me wrong,but if its a world someone is into why not design your own wildcat?name it.there is not a wildcat out there that doesnt have a mass produced round that matches it. so if its the wildcat that draws you in i say make your own then and only then would it be the best.................to you. lol  :twocents:
