Default Anyone know a good source for wildcat data?

I'm playing with the idea of having built for me a varmint/target rifle chambered in a 224 or 6mm wildcat. On the top of my list are several Ackley Improved cartridges based on common and available current production cartridged. These include the .243 Win. AI, 6mm Rem AI, and 22-250 Rem. AI. A non-AI cartridge I'm also considering is the .22-243 Middlested (a .243 necked down to .224 with a 30 deg. shoulder and long neck).

What I'm looking for is a decent and fairly recent load manual that covers these and other wildcat cartridges, including information about the cartridges background and the process by which the perticular wildcat cases are formed.

Does anyone have a suggestion to where I might find this information?

Thanks,

Mike

I don't know of any books right offhand, but here is a website that covers many rifle calibers. Check it out if you haven't already seen it.
