    On the topic of hot calibres eg Creedmoor necked down here is an experience of mine.

    About 40 years ago a gunsmith mate made up this wildcat.
    I cannot remember all the detail eg barrel source (maybe ex machine gun, I don't know).
    He didn't have a chronograph (they were very rare back then) so no idea of the velocities.
    No idea of powder (there was a lot of strange unidentified ex military stuff still around then) or how much.
    Accuracy was abysmal with some projectiles maybe not making it to the target.

    I think he got around 200 rounds before the barrel was toast and became a tomato stake. Maybe overbore?
