  • Okay, the traditional chart is updated and finished. That should conclude that one. Seems like a really useful chart.

    • So the best we could come up with is 4 wildcat pistol cartridges?

          10mm magnum is (to my knowledge) only a rifle cartridge. I know people have machined the cylinder on S&W 610's to accept it, but I think that's probably a rifle cartridge primarily. Is there even a pistol on the market that takes 10mm mag?

            Dan Wesson is well represented in that list.

            How about 475 Linebaugh also a 500 version as well.

                    Those aren't wildcat. They're just obsolete.

                      I was about to say that also, haha, might as well do black powder

                      I don't think there would be much interest in those kind of ballistics, and some of those are old lever gun calibers.

                      • I never said they are wildcat... but isn't the 38-40 available in the Ruger Blackhawk?

                        • This shit takes forever. There, updated. I also added .480 Ruger to the traditional chart, we forgot that one.
