Might try some subsonic 223 after that. See what comes out of it...
Back when I was working with TNW, I put 14 grains of Titegroup behind a 200 grain XTP 10mm to see if the little ASR could take it. It was interesting to say the least. Not a whole lot of damage to the rifle. The barrel bulged into the receiver at the chamber end. Extractor went by by, other than that the bolt worked afterwords, as well as the barrel, once I scraped out the remaining portion of the case stuck in the chamber.stuffing as much trailboss into a 357mag case and see what happens...
not much happens
Cool!I received and old 1917 Colt .45 ACP in a trade years ago and I read where 30-06 and .45 ACP brass had the same basic measurements. I took some 30-06 brass and cut it off 1/8th" shorter than the cylinder of the Revolver, then using .410 wads, #6 shot and some 2400, I loaded up some dandy "snake" (and other thing) loads.
OreMike. You sure we're not related ? Three .451 balls work great loaded into a brass .410 case and 110gr carbine bullets will work in a 30-06 unless they're loaded too light and then you have to pound them out of the barrel. Other than the cut-off 30-06 brass in the 1917 Colt, I've pretty much stuck to the book.I've made loads like 3 451 balls in a 45 colt case or speer flying ashtrays with a full charge of 296 in the same 45 colt. I've tried 110gr. 30 carbine bullets in a 30.06, last dud was a 300gr sierra match king in a 338 win mag seated to magazine length. Way too much bullet jump to be very accurate, seated correctly and single loaded they shoot fine.
I keep pushing my 10mm with stupidly hot loads.
Current max is 12.8 grains of 800x behind a 200 grain XTP. Not really doing it for poops and giggles, more of a hobbyist trying to stretch the boundaries. So far just one primer blow out...
Just around 1300-1350...What velocity are you getting? I decided (for now) to stop at 1,260 with #9
bubblegums and giggles loads? coated lead balls in 45 Colt and 357
