Cartridges for singleshots?
      09/08/09 04:36 AM

Hello Folks,

I'm considering having a hunting rifle built on the Stevens 44 1/2 action, and I'm thinking about the chambering. The action is suitable for rimmed cartridges. I like .264" and .277" bullets especially, but am also fond of .308", and I'm considering the quarter bores.

I'll be looking for 2500+ fps with hunting-weight bullets. The 30-40 Krag comes to mind as a possible chambering, and I'm familiar with a couple of 25 caliber wildcats based on the Krag case. Other than these, what are some suitable cartridges for such a rifle?
