Do you see how all these different CARTRIDGES are the same CALIBER? Understanding things is easy if you try.

Man what the fuck was it with P.O. Ackley? Was he a gigaautist for whom no cartridge was ever good enough unless it had zero taper and a steep shoulder? All for an extra grain of propellant? And the arrogance to call it “improved”. He’d fit right in on this board.

>17 fireball

Speaking of cool little things like 17 fireball, there’s a whole world of really cool, small, subcaliber cartridges that would make for excellent PDW chamberings. Picrel is one of them (though it should be rimless). Another is the 19 Calhoon Badger (30 carbine necked to .197)

Post the "firearm" designed to accept this round, I'll give you 24 hours before I shit myself to death.

Though theoretically one could modify a Tirmax to shoot those...

Someone got a .17 rifle and I want to get them some ammo. What do I get them?
>>
>>64281668
Almost certainly .17 HMR.
Almost everything in OP is a gimmicky as fuck wildcat that you would be hard pressed to find rifles for.

You missed 22 hornet.

I like it. He had a simple trick he applied to everything, had the skills to do it, and every time it was successful he got to name it after himself. It's a fun piece of firearms history.
