Talk:.224 Montgomery/@comment-50.21.207.217-20180525184626

I am Tim Montgomery and this is my wildcat. My 12" TC Contender can push 40 grain bullets to 1800 but primer pockets last longer at 1650. This cartridge will only work in single shots. A small pocket auto pistol might be able to be converted to this cartridge but the performance out of a 2" barrel would be unremarkable. I don't think anyone will want to do any other firearm conversion with this cartridge but I am having a blast shooting it. It was expensive an time consuming but the satisfaction was worth it. It is currently listed in the 14th edition of Cartridges of the World................Tim    mont16@beyondbb.com
