Thought I would explain a little about the 30-220 Russian cartridge & bit more about the project. It's a wildcat cartridge I 'designed'. I wanted a cartridge similar to 7.62x39, but with chamber optimized for accuracy. Wanted to have small rifle primer and to be able to use Lapua brass. Lapua...

Hate to ask such a pedestrian question, but what is the operating rod hump? Cheers, Allen
