    Has anyone heard of this? Thinking about looking in to this as a something new or will it even pan out.:dunno: How would you even begin? What i'm thinking about is a 30/30 necked down to 6.5. How would it compair to the 7/30 waters?

    You mean like the 6.5 Bulberry?

    The case is slightly shortened from full 30-30 length. It has a sharp shoulder, and is strictly a handloading venture. No factory ammo available, although you could probably arrange for the proper person to make you some if you lacked the time/energy/presses ect. No idea what it would cost.
