Default RE: Very interesting

Yeah, I suppose if you look at it that way, it's not EXACTLY a lie[:@], but it is intentionally misleading. In fact it could be considered a lie of omission, since he did not state that he was comparing the minimum loads for the cartridge, but instead implied that the loads were typical of the .30-06. One way or another, it is pure horse**** wrapped in a nice pretty package. I guess the moral of the story is, read all advertising hype with a critical mind. Unfortunately there are many out there who believe anything they read in a gun rag. These days, most articals in gun magazines are just literary infomercials packaged to look like an "expert" evaluations.

But I still wouldn't take a shot at 300 yards with a ML! [:@]
