Not gona get in a [bleep] slinging contest with those who choose to nitpick. High powered rifles is just a term used by lots of shooters, no reference necessary. Look again at the list of allowable rifle chamberings/cartridges, they're all pistol cartridges. Please enlighten us which cartridges other than pistol cartridges does current law allow????????
358 WSSM, 358 Grant, 358 Hoosier, 450 Bushmaster, 50 Beowolf, etc. The list in the regs are not a complete list of what is currently legal. If the bullet is .35" or bigger and the case is 1.16" to 1.8" long, it is legal. Lots of charmberings, both commercial and wildcats, are legal under that definition that are not "pistol" cartridges.
