It's too bad Mark from Mad Dog has left us, it was just starting to get fun.........
Kinda funny how he messed the name up in the title too

So, the .277 Wolverine is yes - based on a 5.56 parent case with the shoulder bumped back .20 and an overall case length of 39mm, or, 6.8x39.
I'm not going to get into the petty arguments y'all are having, but I registered and am posting to let you all know that he is not me, and I don't appreciate the accusation. Anyways, whether you care about it being a 6.8 or .277 bullet vs. a 6.5 or a 6 I don't care, but here's the numbers so far in a recap. Oh and to the guy that was disappointed that we had to do some tweaking here and there while developing a Wildcat has obviously never developed a Wildcat before.
So far we're getting 2690fps with a 90 grain TNT with no pressure signs at all. No cratered or flattened primers, no swipes, no case stretch. We have room to move so we'll cross 2700fps with no problem.
So far we're getting 2500fps with a 110 grain Sierra Pro Hunter, no cratered or flattened primers, no swipes, no case stretch. We have room to move so we should be able to get to 2550fps without issue.
These are out of a 16" Pac-Nor barrel and sub-MOA all day. The powders we are testing are those between typical 6.8SPC and 300BLK powders due to the bore size, case capacity, bullet weight and surface area.
Please remember that unlike the 6.8x45 Kramer, this cartridge uses unmodified 5.56 maps, including Pmags even with it's pointy little front mag rib. The velocities of the Wolverine nip at the heels of the Kramer which nips at the heels of the SPC. Also, this cartridge is now in production and barrels, die sets, WFT's, Ammo Gauges and such are ordered/being ordered. Not full production obviously, as the first batches have been ordered and we're waiting for delivery. However, that's a lot closer than others.
So, there ya' have it. If you have any questions let me know and I'd be happy to respond.
Edit: If you like a 6.5 in a 5.56 case, check out the 6.5PCC. Vic is a good guy and doing well with it.
And Ezbagr, thanks for talking about the cartridge and I won't hold it against you that you got the name wrong ;-). All good.

And how so did I do that?
I cleared up that I am not the other guy...
I corrected incorrect numbers that were posted...
I suggested a nice 6.5 Cat in case y'all are interested in 6.5's 'cause it sounded like some of you were.
Problem is I was on the stake before I even got here through no fault of my own. I'll buy ya' a beer...
There's not one thing I said that was rude, condescending, argumentative or anything of the sort.
So what are you talking about?!?!?

Oh...and if you're going to come on here to represent your company, please stop by the sponsors forum and see how to do that correctly.
Ok, I don't know what you're even trying to say... Ezbagr is some other guy that is on 68forums that basically just brought up this cartridge over here.
Then, arguments started that have nothing to do with me.
I registered because I was told about the claim that he was me in disguise or something and posted having to defend myself somehow on Post 1.
I'm not "selling" anything here.. I just cleared up some mis-posted numbers and the accusation. You see no company name in my posts, you see no links posted, you see no pricing posted, only discussion about the cartridge and I didn't even start the discussion. If I decide to sell here I'll follow protocol.
You're off base friend. I'm not going to fight with you or anyone. See the above on why I even posted here in the first place. I'm not going to let someone, anyone go bad-mouthing or trash talking me or my company or my integrity with false accusations if I know about it. That's fair. Would you?
No need to go off on me when I had nothing do do with why I even posted in the first place. I came here in peace to clear up some bad info that was posted and you're jumping on me like I slashed your tires or something.
Good on you for coming here and clearing up this mess.
Your response is articulated and crystal clear
Thank you.
