Worlds fastest rimfire!!!

[Master Carper]

Any of you guys got any idea of what Winchester is planning on coming out with the first of 2013? They say that they will be coming out with THE WORLDS FASTEST RIMFIRE and I have been kinda curious about it. Any thoughts or ideas???

I heard it would be a .17.

I've heard it was gonna be on a necked down 5mm Remington???

In this link, http://www.ammoland.com/2013/01/winchester-17-winchester-super-magnum-cartridge/#axzz2HIpViIBM, it looks quite a bit longer than the HMR, and the HMR is just a hair longer than the 5mm on right in the pic.

A new fascination for me.
I love the .17's.
