RE: Caliber question
Hi keylargo,
Or the ones named for their supposed inventors, ie. the .35 Whelen, (which was actually invented by his subordinate Howe).
Or explain that the .470's came out in response to the illegality of .450's which were the main British military caliber at that time in colonial Africa and Asia.
Or that the 5.56 NATO and the .223 Remington are one and the same, (ditto the 7.62 NATO - .308 Winchester).
We could "s***w" up a newbie's head for a long time. (But that would be like setting a new shooter behind a .378 Weatherby for their first shot.....and then wondering why they dislike shooting!)
