Rick,
<br>
<br>I too used to think that it was idiotic that no manufacturer had ever come up with a beltless .532 diameter case. Then Remington came out with the Ultra Mag line of cartridges, and then I knew the manufacturers were idiotic. What's with the rebated rims on DGR cartridges ?
<br>
<br>My cartridge was going to be the .300 American- .532 head/rim, 2.500 long, 30 degree shoulder, .350 long neck, and .512 dia at the shoulder. In other words, just a beltless .300 Win.
<br>
<br>I heartily approve of the .338 Bin. And by the way, it is very, very likely that you could get away with using your current action. What with most rims being on the small side, and the clearance designed into the bolt head, you may not need a new action. Thus preserving your marriage [Linked Image]
