Here, OP, I’ve found the most feasible way to accomplish this (with a 180gr bullet)
Picrel, 30-06 case at 97,000psi
So here’s what you have to do. You have to make a solid tungsten 180gr <6.5mm bullet. As short as possible. Then encase this in a cylinder of some malleable material for a total diameter of .350. You will have to use a squeezebore barrel to squeeze this all down to .264 at the end of barrel travel. It helps if this material is dense, but it’s probabaly not. Idk let’s say you use polymer, 1g/cc, basically nothing. All this has to survive almost 100kpsi. The case and the action have to survive this as well. So you have to invent a case and action that can do this, but this is a much more approachable proposition than anything else. It’s only 25% more than 80kpsi.
So there you go. You’re welcome. Go off and revolutionize guns for us now. Nobody will adopt it though because it’s a dumb idea. I’d rather carry an SMG. Atleast my corpse will look cool next to an SMG because I died because I’m inadequately armed.
