The simple fact is that the PGC refuses to release any data on the rack sizes of 2.5+ buck shows that ARs did not come close to producing the predicted results.
Are you saying those promoting ARs were claiming that the size of a 2.5 yr old rack would be bigger with ARs? If so, isn't the size of the rack for a 2.5 yr old still the same 2.5 yr old rack post as well as pre AR?
