Interesting variation cartridge...
I'll share the wildcats I have here is one based on the 222 Rem case the .17 Javelina.
MkVII for scale
This cartridge was developed by the well known hunter and Gun Editor of the magazine Field & Stream for 24 years, Warren Page. Mr Page was also a well known bench Attachment 128655rest shooter too
Page designed a cartridge with some help and tried to sell the idea to Winchester. Winchester rejected the cartridge and redesigned it as the 243 Win with a 17 degree shoulder while Page's cartridge used a 20 degree shoulder and longer neck.
Page's second cartridge shown here, is the 240 Page Super Pooper next to a 6mm Remington cartridge. Custom gunsmiths could ream out a 6mm chamber for the 240 Page cartridge.
the 240 Page Super Pooper fired a 90gr bullet at 3350 fps
