This thread brings back haunting memories of my education in South Africa. I was taunted endlessly while in school for the stupid designations made by Americans for all their "sizing"

Of course I had nothing to do with these designations, but I certainly took the blame as an American born student there.

The worst of all was the 30/06....... The typical comment: What idiot names a cartridge after the year it was made rather then the size or capacity it has? 38 special, what's special about a cartridge they can not even name accurately? I could go on and on but you get the point.

Getting back to the topic, I have no opinion on this .......... well maybe....... I guess it's a solution to a problem nobody has.
