    be interesting to compare 40 vrs 50s once you have the data . . . will the higher velocity give the 40s the edge on paper and in the field at longer range . . . so much to look forward to.

    the thick neck on the TCM is a worry . . . i would be looking at neck turning with a chamber to fit them

    Not really a worry but a annoyance meaning annealing before every load.
    Personally if I was to bother neck turning and having to have a custom chamber reamer made to suit the new neck dia, Id be looking at making it .20cal and 40deg improved at the same time. That would be the perfect calibre in this little hot rod, the same weight bullets only faster with a higher BC.
