Nice to see all the interest in the .318 !!!!!! It would be great to see a revival of this cartridge, like we have seen with the 470 and the 450/400 and the 9.3x62.
It would be great to see a proper “revival” of the .318 WR.
That said, I rather doubt it is a realistic wish because of the .330” bullet diameter. Such a revival would certainly hinge on one of the major bullet makers (and ammo maker) deciding that there was sufficient market for same.
At the same time there would have to be rifles and customers……seems the bulk of rifle customers these days go for black plastic and stainless steel in the latest “fad” caliber.
Alas I think this falls into the category of custom or vintage rifles for the relatively few enthusiasts.
