Summary of .20 Caliber Wildcats

Post by Rick in Oregon »

For those interested, this month's Precision Shooting Magazine has a lengthy article on the popular .20 Cal Wildcats that includes the 20 Tactical, 20 Vartarg, 20 PPC, 20 BR, and the 20 Killer Bee, along with velocities, BC's of appropriate bullets, and drop/energy out to 500 yards.

Also included is a listing of virtually all 20 caliber wildcats from the 5mm Craig and 20 Eichelberger Dart (on the 25 ACP case), all the way up to the 20/220 Swift Improved.

For small caliber lovers, particulary those interested in "other" 20's, this is a very good read. There's 20 cal wildcats that I've never heard of listed, and some of them seem quite interesting. All of these wildcats are based on common, familiar and available cases.

One of these wildcats listed caught my eye...how about the "20 Little Nasty" (20 PPC with the reamer run in short.... :eek: )
