FWIW: .22x.357 Max
« on: April 25, 2009, 12:22:12 AM »
I was searching for info regarding wildcat .22 centerfires based on .357 Mag and .357 Max cases and came across some discussion (from recent past) on this board on the subject but the participants were unsure if there is a name for such a wildcat. I have been looking into this myself so thought I would post such a name: .224 R-C Maxi. This is from Cartridges of the World.

The old .22 Rem. Jet is based on the .357 mag. case, or at least you can form them from the .357 mag. case. The .222 rimed cases can be made from the .357 max. also. I would guess that any other wildcats based on these cases would be very close to on of these rounds.

The 224 GNR is one of Gary Reeder's creations.
