I have a Win.Hi Wall with a Douglas barrel chambered for a wildcat
called .263RKB. The work was done for me in 1964 by Jerry Shannon in Spanaway, Washington while I was at Ft.Lewis. I have not shot it in 40 years. It uses either/or a .30-40 Krag or .303 British necked down to 6.5mm and fire formed hence .263RKB,Rimmed Krag British). I don't know the case capacity. I have lost the reloading data and
would like to start shooting it again. The dies are RCBS. Does anyone know anything about this cartridge or is it a dodo? I have not been able to find any mention of it nor is it likely J.Shannon
is still living as he must have been about 50 when he did the work, and there is no Jerry Shannon living in Spanaway, now. Any help would be much appreciated.
