.375 Whelen
The .375 Whelen cartridge (A.K.A. 375-06) was developed in 1951 by L.R. "Bob" Wallack and named in honor of Colonel Townsend Whelen. It is a .30-06 Springfield case necked up to .375. While the .375 Whelen retains the .30-06's shoulder angle of 17° 30′, an improved version was introduced with a 40° angle, providing more case capacity as well as better headspacing. The .375 Whelen Improved is favored by most.

gollark: You just *cannot* give people access to a thing in one way and expect them to not be able to access it in some other way. Basically every DRM scheme - which this really sounds like - has *failed, inevitably*.
gollark: As Grim Reaper said: if there is *any* important data there or something, *people will get it out* eventually.
gollark: Also, some platforms might not like bytecode.

gollark: I should integrate this into potatOS.
