True dat!

I shoot over 50 different CF rifle cartridges, some common/boring, some, like the 256 Newton, that haven't been factory loaded for over 75 years. But, I like most rifles and cartridges, so it doesn't take too much arm twisting for me to try something that is new to me.


At least you know what you're getting into when you try one of the oddballs. I feel for the newbies that drink the Koolade on new stuff without looking down the road a bit and then get stuck when the promise doesn't pan out. I've never gotten stuck, but most of the rifles I'm drawn to use standard, boring rounds. The craziest thing I ever got involved with was a .17 Mach2 1911 conversion. Got my money back on the kit and the ammo I'd stockpiled; 1800 rounds as I recall.

What fresh Hell is this?
