.19 Badger

The .19 Badger is a .19 caliber rifle wildcat cartridge. It's the third (currently in 2007 the latest) in a set of .19 caliber rounds created by James Calhoon. This was an attempt to take the best features of his earlier cartridges the .19 Calhoon Hornet and the .19-223 and create a very powerful and efficient cartridge.

This cartridge is based on the rimless .30 M1 Carbine case, which has almost the same rim diameter as a .22 Hornet but has less potential feeding problems in some rifles because of the lack of a rim.
