Default 30-30 wildcat

I've got a Encore barreled rifle in 22/30-30AI. The guy I bought the barrel from took a new Encore 223 Varmint barrel and had OTT rechamber it. I haven't shot it much, capacity is slightly less than a 22-250 so I imagine performance is also slightly less. I also have a 25-35 and a 219 Zipper on Contender barrels, both can use the 30-30 case as a parent, just easier to buy them in their finished size. EABCO has a full line of cartridges based on the 30-30 parent, they call them the BRM's. Have to say the 22 Hornet casehead size is nowhere near the 30-30.
