I recently took delivery of a wildcat cartridged rifle in 22x47. The brass started life as 6.5x47 Lapua and took considerable time to resize and turn the necks of 500 pieces.
This gun shoots a .224 SMK 95gr bullet at around 3200fps. The correction at 1000 yds is 5.9 mils.
This past week the wind was 10 - 15 mph and this rifle was hitting clay pigeons at 600 yards with zero hold for wind.
Built by Tom Sarver at Thunder Valley Precision with a Huber trigger, Surgeon action, Kreiger 27" barrel with a 6.25 twist and a PSE stock, Atlas bipod. I am using a Nighforce ATACR 7-35 x 56 F1 scope.
