Looks like they are trying to standardize one of the many .357/8 calibers based off the .223/5.56 case, or maybe a longer version, like Al's. I have wanted to build one for the AR, but too many projects going on. I like it (or others of the same idea), because I have a ton of 5.56 brass (assuming Win's version can use that brass), and only really shoot .223. I have a 300blk pistol upper, but honestly, not a huge fan. It does subs, but is mediocre with supers. 300blk specific bullets helps, but still not that great of energy. I also can't use it for hunting. With a 35 caliber using necked up .223/5.56 brass, I have the brass, it would use powders that we already use for the 450B, I have primers, I have some pistol bullets, and I might be able to use it for hunting (depending on specs). If it specs out like I hope, then I hope it takes off, and I also hope they come out with some cartridge specific bullets for it, preferably expanding coppers. Although, Maker's will make pretty much whatever you want, so I guess someone could give them a call for that.
