Well Wingman, by your own pen hand you have written (typed) that for the same powder charge / projectile in the 305.5 you have greater velocity than the CM … so I couldn't help wondering if this is at the expense of anything, including an increase in recoil ??
Yip all of about 100fps more.. but I bet there is no one that could tell the difference in recoil between those two cartridge loads in the same rifle.

What I find really interesting with this discussion is that in the past, to gain greater velocity a bigger case and more powder was needed. Now I am seeing that concept change from a bigger case to a more efficient for calibre case.

Thats always been my jive.. high efficiently bench rest style cartridges with heavier bullets and short actions

The lower the recoil the easier to shoot a really light rifle. I thought that a 260 AI would be where it's at but that thought is clearly wrong. I am now wondering how light I could go with a single shot rifle ??
