234 Wildcat Family....ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY

On your first birthday you have in fact had two, one being the day you were born and the second on the following year .. Comprendaaa am e go ?

Aktewalley...........tree..........if'n yer thinkking this root.
The night oh kon sept shun.
Think oh the tad pole...........swimm'n up the river.
 
Hey y'all, we should start a lottery..........who can guess the closest to the max velocity per cartridge, with 100 gn bullet, without going over.

26" barrel, my handloads, and I'll abstain so as to not bias or corrupt the results, as I have nothing to gain............ but velocity.

Then possibly we should add best group size as well............but that relies too much on my aging eyes and differences from day to day. That might be a good one for the "23 Jamboree", best overall groups from all five cartridges. Each shooter shoots 4 rounds from each of the five rifles, from bags and a bench for an aggregate best group size..........$5 a set..........I like that one!!!

Pipsqueak
Lynx
Hyrax
Penguin
Douglas

Thoughts and opinions?

Imported from a few pages back ...
So I guess there is no more input so 230 Hyrax it is for the 23-08..........so now to recap....

23-222RM = 23 Pipsqueak

23-250 = 234 Lynx

23-08 = 230 Hyrax

23X55 = 234 Penguin

23-284 = 230 Douglas


All in favor say AYE

Soo .. I'll take me a jr. neophite wildcatter cart. designer's stab at it .. mebee give 'ol 'looky de linguist' sumpt'n ta mess us all about wit somewhere down the line?. .. :p.
But, puh-leeeze gent's .. Go Easy On Me, 'cuz in this will-ee-whaw crapshoot 'll no doubt be WAY off real world results fer sure .. after all, I'm extrapolating from SAAMI max's here ... know'n full well that it's Strongarm Douglas heself, who's gonna be that guy dribbl'n the go juice into scale pan ...
May I be the first to suggest, that "max." parameters .. be considered at least two firings from virgin brass ... 'afore the primers start falling out from gravity alone ???.

(approx. H2O cap. ,to top of neck.)
Pipsqueak ~ 32gr cap., = 100gr .234 @ 2550fps.
Lynx ~ 45gr cap., = 100gr .234 @ 2950fps.
Hyrax ~ 53gr cap., = 100gr @ 3100fps.
Penguin ~ 55gr cap., = 3100fps.
Douglas ~ 66gr cap., = 3250fps.

Thoughts and opinions?

Accuracy potential:
to 300 ... Pipsqueak.
to 500 ... Lynx.
to 900 ... Penguin.
to infinity ... Douglas.


What say y'alls ?.
