Just picked up an 18" Mad Dog .277 Wolverine barrel.

I grabbed up 250 pcs. of Starline brass and some Speer 90 grn Gold Dots

Looking forward to killing some deer this fall with this set up.

I think it will be better than a BO for sure. Should be fun to try.

I almost went that route, but after looking through various offerings I think my next will be a Yeti. Most of my shots are close so "ballistic advantage of higher BC" doesn't mean much. However a .358 Win performance level cartridge out of a carbine length barrel could be pretty handy for bigger critters. The GPC line is pretty well thought out though I don't know that there's any advantage over the 6.8 really. If longer shot's were needed their 7mmValkerie might be interesting as well.

I couldn't say

I did a search on the Ingram and couldn't find enough on it to get a comparison

I'd bet the Ingram is longer then the Wolverine

I have a Wolverine. I really like it. I have shot a whitetail and a mouflon ram.

I have yet to load for my 27GPC.
