    So how ridiculously light weight is it? I made my whisper up with lots of steel in case I blew the barrel but now with some rounds behind I don't feel it's a problem and the wife' gotten my old CAR15 and I have a flattop upper with not lower - hmm - you are evil

    The wildcat is basically done, with only slight load tweaking to be done iirc. I think he's slammed with both .300AAC (he was one of the first to hit the market as best I can tell. That's the benefit of being a nimble small company) and medical issues (he's a veteran) right now. I'll see if I can rustle up some specs for you...

    The .50 Hush Puppy is a rifle cartridge based on the 7mm WSM case cut off at 1.7", just at the start of the shoulder. The result is a more sturdy case capable of higher pressures than that used by the .50 Beowulf and with a bit more taper, aiding in feeding. The .50 Hush Puppy's ballistics are slightly superior, but very similar, to the venerable 50-70. This wildcat is still in development.

    Bringing back from the dead to see more details on this very cool build.
    Any rifles built on an AR platform?
    How far out did the acuracy hold up with the diffent bullts 200m, 300m, 700m?

    Thanks Warf

    This looks neat. So does it just headspace on the case mouth?

    The OP disappeared off the face of the planet quite awhile back. He suffered some severe head trauma in the sandbox and was no longer in the military because of it when I last spoke with him on the phone. He also disappeared from the BO forum also. I don't think he's with us anymore. <sad face>
