30-40 Krag, maybe?
yep, but all rimmed low pressure cartridges, like the TC contender, no rimless cartridges larger than 223, thats why I was wondering, the most potent I've saw or heard of a #3 was a guy took a couple 375's and bored them out to 375 JDJ, but its also a round safe in the contendor.
