Calling all 20 cals...Let's see your wildcats!

The SCC or PPCAI comes to mind.
A straight 20PPC would compliment your stable well also you could shoot the 55's even if you wanted to even with zero freebore with the long neck as long as you did a 9 twist, long barrel life too.

This little guy is getting closer. Frustration set in and I parked it for too long. Time to make it happen. Perhaps Bowfisher will chime in and share the experiences with his that’s up and running. First pic is dummy round next to parent 22 TCM case.

Worried about barrel life with the BR the GT isn't gonna do him any favors
I don’t think this referred to my inquiry, but I looked at it. 20-50 pieces of brass is all one one need, lol. Speed kills, along with plenty of “hydraulics” for lift. I love a critter laying flat trying to hide, let me see you chin, lol.

That’s is freaking awesome. Wanted to try that for a while. Keep it going
 
Thanks man! It was 853 yards. First shot. It’s better to be lucky than good!
It appears you have both dialed! That's a heck of a shot. Love that rifle and view. I often think about finding a little cabin out west again then reality hits. Don't ever move ;)

You'll like it, been shooting mine since the TCM came out. I made up 1100 cases for squirrels which gives me a couple days. The thing I really like about it is it doesn't foul the barrel much and I usually only clean every 300-400 shots. I run 296 and 32 gr VMax. I don't hesitate on 300 yd shots at squirrels. Even at that distance you'll get very positive kills. Good luck, I call mine the 20 Boomer. Try the 17 version next, you'll like it too.

Ah yes, Ray. You may recall speaking with me over the phone. I really valued your insight on the project regarding your experience with the 20 Boomer. Even dug into an old email chain you and I shared. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate all the input you provided. 296/H110 is on a list of powders to try. Bowfisher got his running on “TCM” powder…some very nice groups. Lilgun was good also, but neither he nor I like the instability of that powder, particularly on such a small case where a .1 grain of powder makes a big difference. He couldn’t fit enough 1680 in the case to give good velocities. N105 is another powder we wouldn’t mind trying also.
 
I’m no photographer. Best I can do. The gun was smithed by @Dusty Stevens and stock work by @Bc'z. The paint kinda shifts when you move around it. She’s a looker for sure but not a safe queen!
The gun is a prized possession.

Thanks for the pic, very much appreciated.
Bc's seems to do some awesome paint jobs from what I've seen in pics (I haven't seen one in person)
What stock is that?
