Re: It Lives! Largest XLR ever!!!
Isnt saojao`s 14.9mm cartridge based on the 14.5x114mm Russian round? If so, thats one helluva case. The .50BMG has 292gr H2O capacity, the 12.7x108mm Russian at 355gr H2O, and the big 14.5x114mm has 656gr H2O capacity. Its crazy to think that thing has over twice the cap of a BMG. IIRC, saojao is only using bullets in the realm of like 1000-1500 grains. I would think at that diameter, youd be looking at closer to a half lb. projectile weight(3500gr) to get the highest BC out of that diameter. Maybe its changed since then, but ~1000gr seems awful light(LOL!) for 14.9mm. Curious to hear/see more updates

25.4mm x .60in = 15.24mm. It depends if theyre measuring the lands or the grooves, but it looks like 14.9mm will come in below .60cal either way, even if by a very slim margin were they to measure the grooves.

Re: It Lives! Largest XLR ever!!!
This is truly an awesome build, but I'm curious as to a couple things. 1st, brass sourcing and case dimensions, 2nd, bullet sourcing and construction, 3rd, total price of the build, lastly, what optics were mounted on it, and with what rings. Again, truly jaw-dropping build ya'll.
Edit: also what is the twist rate on the barrel?
Edit 2: The more I think about it, the more questions I have. What kind of powder and how much?
