My teeth grind at these (among others):
� rifles that "sport" or "wear" scopes or whatever
� "tube" for barrel, especially in reference to rifle barrels
� "harvested" for killed
� "projectile" or "slug" for bullet
� "handle" for stock
� "glass" or "optics" for scope or binoculars
Fowler said it well � 'The obvious is preferable to the obvious avoidance of it."
