The guys at Sierra who helped me out were not what I'd call pencil pushers. They seemed to me like shooting/hunting enthusiasts (I dare say loony's).

When I called about stability of the 190s in a 1/12 308 Win, the guy got back to me in a couple days. He made up a deliberately slow load, about 2000 fps, and checked it in their underground facility in one of those machine-looking contraptions. Load shot 1/2" at 200 yards. I got the feeling those guys truly enjoyed that sort of stuff.
