Meet the 7.62 Yahweh

I wonder why he will not put the drawing up for his cartridge, it is on the patent. I looked it up and there are several drawings.

Based on what he is claiming it sounds like he blew out the case taper, uses a 30* shoulder for the blown out part and maintains the original 17*30' shoulder by the neck. This somehow allows for an additional 5-8gr of powder capacity over a 7.62x39, 52k PSI MAP, and 2600-2650 with a 150gr bullet out of a 20" barrel. Somehow this cartridge also drops deer in their tracks, but his buddies .30-06 with 165 gr bullets results in the deer running off and being recovered the next day after having been eaten by coyotes.

Skimmed one of his High Road posts, possibility of snake oil and poor video aside, he does at least seem to have a good grasp of the Ackley concepts. It IS the heavily tapered case bodies - i.e., the .30-30 - that have realized the most gains from the process.

Does make one wonder why we haven't heard of anyone doing something like this with their CZ-527.

Guess I'll start calling it the "Yahoo" and see if it catches on.

In the video he really didn't show anything. He held stuff in his hand, about 10 or so feet from the camera, not enough detail to see... anything.

From the THR thread, seems he didn't do much but neck up a 6PPC and give it the funky shoulder, He said multiple times that it is the actual parent case.
