Anyone have any experiences with either of these or any other match-inspired 6mm wildcats?

Thanks


Dennis, I don't think you were really clear in your opening post..."based off the 243 Winchester case" leaves a lot for interpretation wink

And what's the top three on your list now?



Well a Catbird isn't possible to make from a 243 case. I was thinking the ones mentioned and possibly just a straight change to a 30° shoulder.

Because the CM has the short neck and the Super has proprietary everything, I ordered dies and brass for 6x47L instead. Should lose a few fps in velocity but hopefully pick up a little advantage in accuracy with the good brass for that parent case and the small primer.
