    55,000 should be about right. You should be able to use 222 Remington load data for it. 222 Remington has a case capacity of 26.9gr of H2O, while 5.45x39 has a case capacity of 27gr of H20.

    I've thought about using .357 Maximum cartridges to form rimmed 300 blackout cases. I think that would be a really cool lever gun cartridge.

    I'm interested in this bullet. I was wondering if someone had a few they would be willing to send me to try out?
    I would be willing to make a trade for the bullets.
