Warning! Notes: The 30 Carbine parent case, when necked to 19-caliber with a 30-degree shoulder, creates a short powder column with thick case walls at the case neck. Both features contribute to varmint-grade accuracy. Suitable for any firearm capable of accommodating the Hornet case, the 19 Badger works well in 24-inch barrels using a 1:13 twist. Incidentally, the 19 Badger holds about 25 percent more powder than the 19 Calhoon cartridge (which uses the 22 Hornet as its parent case). James Calhoun Mfg offers rifles, barrel kits, loaded ammunition, reloading supplies and components for the 19 Badger cartridge. Cooper Arms also chambers single-shot rifles for this cartridge on special order. (Cartridges of the World 12th Edition) |
