Best wildcats you've seen or heard of

>>33350775

I wonder what the maximum barrel length is that would not result in this turning into a squb.

6.5 creedmoor, but i dont know if it's considered a wildcat anymore, so i'll go with .17 incinerator

>>33350775

Umm
If it were rimless, you could PROBABLY make it work by enclosing half the chamber in a hollow bolt. But since there's a rim in the way, doing that would still leave the brass largely unsupported unless you literally made a two-piece bolt that clamshells around it.

Behold, the king of the weird wildcats. The .10 Eichelberger LR. A .22LR case, necked down to .10 (while primed, requiring repeated annealing, because who doesn't like holding a blowtorch to a primed case), so some insane motherfucker can burn 1.8 grains of AA9 to just about match the performance of a particularly powerful .177 air rifle.

Now that seems as pointless as it is cool, god damn.

I've always wanted to fuck around with gunsmithing as a hobby, make some kind of medium-range plinking round that costs about as much to reload as outright buying high quality .22 LR - maybe .357 magnum necked down to accept some 95 grain 6.5mm bullets?

Faster than conventional propellant can send them.
I may be wrong, but I was under the impression that the ignition velocity for black powder or cordite is ~4800-4900 fps, which might translate to the theoretical limit. I think there are other propellants that have sent them faster.

>>33360656
Well I was meaning projectiles in general, not necessarily just .22-250. I mean if you had a larger case volume and a relatively solid projectile, like pulled from 7n6 or something, it would take higher rotational forces to pull it apart. The lightweight .22-250 projectiles you are talking about are ballistic tips, so they are more prone to coming apart anyway

Hypothetically you could shoot a tiny .17 projectile fast enough to obliterate tanks right? f=m*a^2, right?

t. Haven't taken college physics yet.

>>33366943
In reality the projectile would react to hitting air as if it were smashing into a brick wall at very high speeds you'd need to destroy a tank. In a vacuum,a gun firing something like this could be pretty devastating as long as the projectile holds together from the 5000 g acceleration.

A typical M829A2 120mm APFSDS round (what the M1 Abrams fires) will have a muzzle velocity of 1,680 m/s and weighs about 20.9 kg - this gives it a kinetic energy of 29.5 Megajoules.

For reference, a 6.5x55mm Swiss bullet will have about 2.8 Kilojoules of muzzle energy.

Usually the heaviest .17 bullet will weigh in around 30 grains, or almost 2 grams. To achieve a similar level of kinetic energy to the M829A2 tank-buster 120mm round, we can ascertain that it will have to travel at around 174,400 m/s.

That's Mach 526. That's 0.000582% lightspeed.

That's a fucking fast bullet, okay? It'll probably turn into plasma after traveling a few inches down the barrel. I don't even think it would be possible to make a gun fire anything that fast with conventional high explosives and withstand the force of firing it.

>>33366943

Sure. Heck, given enough energy a miligram of copper plasma can turn a tank into an expanding ball of vapor, though it would need to be traveling at nearly the speed of light to do it.


>>33366956

But this guy is very right: 1.2 kilograms per cubic meter air starts to feel Very Dense when a small projectile with a LOT of energy. They will lose juce and have to plow the air out of the way.

>>33366996
That's neat

Plasma rifle when?

>>33367018
Probably never.

Plasma is, by nature, a very unstable state of matter - atomic nuclei stripped of their electrons, which inherently causes each nucleus to repeal any nearby ones due to the strong positive charge that they all share, not to mention the fact that they'll happily react with any other nearby atoms to strip any electrons that they can off of them.

Imagine getting a few dozen 5 year old kids with severe ADHD, put them in the middle of Disneyland with $500 in their pockets, and then tell them march in military lockstep from one end of the park to the other without any of them deviating.

It just won't happen. You'd be lucky to see one or two of them at the exit by the end of the day.

Simply put, the distance you can expect a coherent bolt of plasma to travel before dispersing - without some kind of containment method - is short enough that it won't have an application in weapons.

>>33366996

2000fps good enough?
"The .223 Timbs is the result of a co-development between Quality Cartridge and Joseph Timbs. It is the American answer to the proprietary .224 BOZ, bringing the CZ-52 into the new millenium. The .223 Timbs is a special loading of the 7.62x25 round for use only in the CZ-52 pistol. It consists of a sabot like the Remington "Accelerator" pushing a 50gr bullet over 2000fps. Concept was for devastating multi-purpose round, useable for small game, varmits, and defense. Accuracy has proven to be on-par with traditional rounds fired from the same pistol, and terminal ballistics are quite impressive with initial tests showing devastating expansion from the varmit-type bullets

Gotta be the .17 Squirrel.

>>33376493
did these actually send the bullet to a target or did the projectile just turn into molten slag when it left the muzzle

>>33376527
That's not a .17 Squirrel though.

Old navy tale that I've never been able to confirm. The idea starts out well, but the ending doesn't really conform to physics all that well.

>Back in the 70’s they developed the 50-BRBR. They used the main barrel from a Battleship turret and progressively sleeved it down to 50 cal. They developed a 30 gallon brass case, and measured powder in by the bag (10lbs/bag). The barrel was rifles for only 2 feet and then smooth bore after the rifling which allowed gasses to bypass the bullet. This relieved pressure and accelerated the bullet via Bernoulli’s Principle.

>The round was never intended for accuracy because the shock wave generated would completely devastate a 600 meter wide path, which narrowed a bit after 2.566 miles and stopped entirely when the bullet finally disintegrated after about mile 3.17 to 3.42.

>>33376571
Oh shit, you're right, I think that's the .14 Squirrel.

Also a fan of the 7.62 micro whisper. For when you need to push a ~150gr .30cal bullet at a massive 1050fps and only have a shitload of .30 Luger brass on hand.

>>33372988
You could, in theory, accelerate a .17cal projectile that fast without it disintegrating or turning to plasma.

It would require an enormously long barrel and some glacially slow powder to do it, and the bullet would have to be made out of something quite a bit more heat resistant than copper/lead, but it is in theory possible.

Not with any propulsion system currenlty in existence.
Projectiles are limited to roughly 2/3 of the gas that is propelling them. Even light gas guns top out at well under 100k fps.

>>33367046

Actually yes it has applications.

Space combat. Objects travelling at speeds so fast you can measure them in c to get your point across.

Its much easier for a tracking system to shoot out a cone shaped plasma "projectile" and connect to a target than using solid ammo in certain circumstances.

It's not a Squirrel at all, it's noticeably too short.

Close, it's a .45 BR, 31 different bullets to chose from.

Just because it's in a vacuum doesn't meant the massive amount of positively charged nuclei won't repel each other, you'll just end up with a cloud of fast moving ions and a fucked barrel.

Even if you were able to somehow keep that plasma cone/bolt/whatever coherent on its way to the target, it's still probably going to cause more heat and use more energy than a similarly damaging laser would, and with lasers you don't have nearly as much delay as something traveling at only a small fraction of c

Hypothetically, yes. An objects potential to do damage is best measured by its kinetic energy, obtained as Ek=1/2*m*v^2. This means that while mass is a factor in calculating an objects destructive potential, velocity is far more important. However in order to get something going fast enough to make up for a .17's extremely light weight, it would need to go fast... like really fast, so converting 20 grains into kilograms we get 0.0013kg for the approximate weight of a .17 HMR round. A .50BMG leaving an M107 has 15,582 J of energy. 15582=0.00065*v^2, so dividing both sides by our halved mass and taking the square root, we get our .17 HMR has to be moving at 4,896 m/s to have the same kinetic energy. Something that just becomes impractical engineering wise to achieve.

>>33350775
Iv'e heard of someone expanding the neck on a 5.56 case to being fully straight walled at it's 9mm base diameter, and loading it with either standard 9mm ball or custom longer spitzerized 9mm projectiles to create some sort of 9x45mm that would have performance like the 9x39mm the Russians use. it's also sometimes called .357 rimless mag.

The US 9x39 approximation is called .358 Gremlin. The 5.56 based 9mms have been around for ages but mostly cut down to fit into handguns for major power factor.

They have fuckall for casemouth which is an issue and why 9mm is the max and why 10x45 isn't a thing. The SPC and Grendel cases however..

>>33386579
Interestingly enough the M1 Carbine is one of the few actions that would rather easily take 5.7x28 due to the OAL and guys have been saboting. 30carbine and 7.62x25tok for the M1 Carbine for a long time. That or the 10/22 sized gun would be handy as fuck.

On a slightly related note, .40S&W would work in a PS90 IF the whole case lube/feed mechanism could be made to work
