"""Probably the most overhyped series of cartridges ever. The real numbers don't match the claims."""

That is about the biggest pile of cr*P I have ever heard concerning any ammo on the market.

That has not been my experience at all with these cartridges. If you want to talk about hype look at the 300 winchester ,7 Rem mags, 7 STw and any Weatherby cartridge I guess they are not hyped either. Show me how many of those "Large Magnums" match factory velocity figures whether underloaded or not by the Factories. Oh sure you can reload them and get maybe 100 fps or more velocity, what animal cares and who cares for getting pounded around with recoil. For those that think they don't match their factory velocities why don't you actually shoot and chronograph every one of the short mags before you open your yap.
