I never said that.... I said "It is pretty much a 7mm-08 in an Ar-15" I was realating this wildcat to something that is a commercial cartridge...
Out of a 24" barrel they are getting 140gr loads going 2750-2850. Hornady factory 139gr American Whitetail line it has it going 2840fps. Shoots a .284 bullet and has about the same ballistics of a 7mm-08 that is why I stated that.... But here is the recommended powders Leverevolution,CFE 223, xbr 8208, H335,Benchmark, AA2520, TAC, AA2230 and Xterminator. And from the Facebook community a lot of people are running velocities close to this...
A 20" barrel will push the 130 close to 2800 fps. To me it just seems like it would be a nice light weight Ar-15 to use for if your hiking etc... Plus I just like wildcats lol
