SSK took important dimensions from the Remington designed 221 Fireball and/or Remington designed 223. So it is pretty funny you are implying we took those dimensions from him.
We did not have a Whisper(R) drawing when designing the 300 AAC BLACKOUT but it turns out that SSK borrowed the 221 Remington 221 Fireball's shoulder location, head, and body taper dimensions when designing his cartridge - so when Remington used the same dimensions from the Remington-designed parent cartridge, it turned out to be the same in those areas. At least I think so, but I have still never seen an SSK 300 Whisper drawing. The throat is different, which is why 300 AAC BLACKOUT ammo has a potential velocity advantage.
