240 Page Super Pooper
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
rest 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
