- .219_Donaldson_Wasp abstract "The .219 Donaldson Wasp cartridge was developed during the 1930s by Harvey Donaldson, and is based on the .219 Zipper case.While popular amongst match shooters in the 1940s it has fallen by the wayside in favor of newer developments, but is still held in high regard for its accuracy and is widely considered the grandfather of benchrest cartridges. Today the round occupies a niche in the lever operated single shot rifle market. 50 and 55 grain bullets are commonly used and load pressures are typically in the 55,000–60,000 psi (380,000–410,000 kPa) range.There are three noteworthy designs associated with the Wasp name. The first version, known as the 219 Gipson Wasp, named after the gunsmith who chambered the first Wasp rifle for Donaldson, was designed in the mid 1930s. This version has a case length measuring 1.625" and was formed from rimless 25 Remington brass.Soon after the introduction of the 219 Zipper in 1937 Donaldson shifted his experimentation to the newly available brass. By approximately 1940 he had lengthened the body of the case to increase capacity from around 24 to 28 grains of 3031 powder - to see if velocity could be increased while maintaining accuracy. To Donaldson's delight, the larger case produced both higher velocity and better accuracy. This development work is detailed in a series of letters written by Donaldson and collectively published in Yours Truly by Wolfe Publishing Company (1980).By 1945 Donaldson had lengthened the neck by about 1/32" so as not to encroach on powder capacity when using a graphite wad behind the bullet. This resulted in a total case length of 1.750". This final design is enshrined in a drawing on page 224 of Twenty-Two Caliber Varmint Rifles by Charles S. Landis (1946).During the 1960s an even longer version appeared - a result of measurements drawn from the front of the rim instead of the rear. This design has a case length of 1.813" (1.750" plus 0.063" rim thickness). The same error has occurred on a number of other popular wildcats.".
