I too remember that revelation from POA, but from then to now, I've known of no one who either (a) observed POA's tests (although some of my friends worked for him during that time) or (b) confirmed his results by repeating his tests. So I still have to wonder and must have some reliable confirmation before I can accept his claims as incontestable facts. I guess I'll have to get an Arisaka -- and a 94 Winchester to check another astonishing POA claim -- strap 'em to a tractor tire, and touch 'em off to see for myself. One advantage that I have, but he didn't, is the capability to instrument each rifle to record the internal pressures that will be produced during the tests. I'll also make sure to have enough reliable, technically knowledgeable witnesses watching, to see to it that my tests and their results are sound beyond serious question or dispute.

<br>Anybody out there ready to risk sacrificing a rifle for a good cause? Any volunteers for "jury duty?"
