Raises my anxiety level to have you talk about nickel cases. I suspect 
that a cartridge case made out of nickel would be virtually useless, 
and very expensive.

Wiinchester made a good move when it went into a collaboration with 
Nosler to develop these rounds.

By the bye, did you guys know that the the 223, the 222 Remington, the 
219 Zipper, the 218 Bee, the 220 Swift,and the 22-250 all use bullets 
that are the same diameter?

Did you know that the .357 SIG cartridge is 9mm? Did you know that the 
.44 bullet is .429 ? Did you know that the .270 is .277 ? You probably 
did know that the 30-06 is .308.

What's in a name?
