Niche, historic, and specialty centerfire rifle calibers that fall outside the main caliber families. This catalog covers rounds with unique ballistics, specific platforms, or specialized hunting and precision roles – from small bore varmint to modern proprietary designs.
Cartridges in this catalog:
204 Ruger
204 Ruger is a dedicated varmint cartridge built around .204-inch bullets. It achieves extremely high velocity with low recoil and excellent flat trajectory, making it one of the best purpose-built rounds for prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and other small varmints at extended range.
45-70 Government
45-70 Government is a 19th century cartridge still very much in active use. It drives large, heavy .458-inch bullets at moderate velocity, giving massive frontal area and deep penetration on elk, moose, bear, and bison-sized game. Load levels vary dramatically depending on the platform – Trapdoor Springfield, lever action, or modern strong single shot – and mixing them up is a serious safety issue.
25 Weatherby RPM
25 Weatherby RPM is a modern beltless quarter bore designed for lightweight hunting rifles. It combines Weatherby velocity with a more practical case geometry, giving flat trajectory and strong terminal performance on deer and antelope-sized game without the harshest recoil of full Weatherby magnums.
26 Nosler
26 Nosler is a large capacity 6.5mm magnum built around Nosler’s proprietary case. It pushes .264-inch bullets at very high velocity for extreme flat trajectory and strong downrange energy, suited to long range hunting of deer, elk, and larger game where barrel life is a secondary concern.
