>time to shoot a nice .280- ACK!Which cartridge has the worst name? My vote is .280 ackley improved, with an honorable mention to .30 super carry
>>64688212Counter point, which name is best?.257 Roberts.257 Weatherby.25-06 AI.425 Westley Richards
>>64688241>which name is best?
>>64688281>no cases are availableNot really a thing.
>>64688281That is a thick rim.
>25-45 sharps. (Mixed units)>.308x1.75” (the wrong units for caliberxcaselength)I’m trying to think of more, but come to think of it, I quite like cartridge names. The imperial naming convention is stupid, granted, but some just roll off the tongue nicely. 350 legend, 360 buckhammer, 6mm SAW, etc. you don’t have to hate everything. It’s nice to like things.Oh, .224 boz sounds a bit unserious to me because “boz” means “whore” in my mother tongue. I always chuckle when it comes up.
>>64688212you do realize that ackley improved isn't the name of a single cartridge, it's the name of a genre of cartridges?take any bottlenecked rifle cartridge and blow the shoulder angle forwards and that's ackley improved
>>646883807mm08 is up there
>>64688643Yeah, it’s weird to say.Seven millimeter oh eight, right?
>>64688695I think so
>>646882418milly mau mau
>>646882416.5 sneedmore
>>64688312>that is a thick rim>Me: what? it looks normal sized>*looks closer at dimensions*Holy fuck. That’s considered suitable for bears? To be fired from a shouldered rifle? This makes 2 bore look likes child’s play.
8.6 blackout should be 330 blackout 22 creedmoor should be 5.5 creedmoor>>64688643I think it takes the cake. 7x51mm would have been just fine. 08 means literally nothing
>>64688695Everyone just calls it 708.
