23 MM Bolt Action shoots a 2800gr projectile!


Recommended Posts

Something seems a little off. Like a .50 BMG case shortened and "necked up". Probably similar ballistics to the 20mm? And why the "fat" rifle with a little scope? Scope almost looks like a joke. Is it Class III as a destructive device?

I would guess it is Class III but I was just sent the link I do not know anything about the project.

Found this: http://sskindustries.com/cartridges

"As its name implies, rifles chambered for the cartridge have a bore diameter of 0.950 in (24.1 mm), which would normally classify them as Destructive Devices in the United States under the 1968 (1934) National Firearms Act. However, SSK sought and received a "Sporting Use Exception" to de-regulate the rifles, meaning they can be purchased like any other Title I rifle by a person over age 18 with no felonies on their criminal record"

I thought they said it was a .905 in the vid but the site says it is .950 so 24mm. The case is a necked down 20mm. Also some documentation says the projectile is 3600gr so ...
