Supposely barrel life. I kinda do believe it. Thats the selling point is using a lighter bullet with higher BC than a heavier one in the 22-250. Which I proved to myself.

Everybody likes to use the word hype. I am not sure why people don't like new offerings. I figured they would be glad to have choices. Choices are good.

I say bring on more products.

I was reading a while back some articles in old Rifle mags when the 300win mag came out. The word hype was there in several postings. People all upset saying a 30-06 is much better. Then ammo price.

If everyone had that attitude of always looking back, we would never advance in anything in america.

Its like plasma TVs. People complain about the price and saying theres better out there. Current draw, whatever. But with any new technology, you have to start somewhere. The price will go down, the performance will improve, the heat and current draw will be at a more managable rates. Usually high end buyers are the ones that pay for development, so later you only pay for components.

Same with WSM's.
