Is that basically a straightened out .223 Rem?

How much more powder would that case hold over a 30 carbine??

30 carbine with a 110Gr Spire point or a 125 BT might do pretty good under 150 yds

Could do that in a 12" barrel too

444 trimmed to 1.4 and necked down. I can't find any other info on it with the exception of other people asking about it and not getting answers.

What are the restrictions in IL? Is it case length? Does it have to be a "factory" chambering? Is there a min or max bore size or barrel length?

at least 30cal, 1.4"case length, 500ftlb, factory loaded so they can find info on internet. You Can also use straight wall. I would like to stay with rimless and bottle neck.

I know 300/221, 300 blackout will work. But I have a 7mmbr xp for donar. Wrong bolt and want to get all the ump I can.
