Yeah, I have only run into 2-3 PH's that would be considered really knowledgeable about rifles, handloading, etc., on these forums. Part of the problem is that they just don't have the access to components we do here, and if they do, everything is incredibly expensive. Plus they are normally limited in the number of rifles they can own, so are limited in judging various cartridges and rifles to what clients bring.
Then again, many of them are very practical hunters, who do know a lot about what works among the cartridges and components they can get. I suspect this is the big reason many rounds we would consider way too slow are still popular over there: They work with ordinary bullets.
