popular means that the majority of folks out there that really don't have that much of a clue, were sold on it by something.
doesn't mean its better.
But not that big a deal, we play with what we want. Main point was don't put so much faith in what you read at times, vs what the actual failure rate in the real world is. Its not that high. I've seen 2 bolts loose a lug in 223. I"ve never seen any other loose a lug, but to be fair I've seen WAY more 223s being fired than others.

PS I don't have anything against the 6.8, I have the one necked to 6. Nice little round but pathetically slow.

if you jerk one out in 10, then it means you can jerk one out in 3 and you can jerk one out in one,
Well, yeah, in absolute's, that's true. But the likelihood of jerking or pulling one in a 10 shot string is likely much higher than an incidence in a 3 shot or 1 shot string. I've never been a competitive rifle shooter, but I've shot a lot of pistol matches & 10 shot strings at 50 yards will test all of your skills & concentration & the need for those skills & concentration goes significantly, almost exponentially, up as you get deeper into the string. JMHO, YMMV. MM

Its not like hunting situations don't amp up the stress level. And or self defense situations, especially someon possibly shooting at you amping it up.
The better you are, the better you are.
In 10 shots if you jerk 3, then its just numbers... means 30% of the time you are bad.
If you are good with that, then its cool.
if not you need to shoot more. As noted shooting more is never a bad thing.
I don't get why folks don't want to shoot 10 or 20 shot groups... mostly I hear excuses as to why they dont... makes me look bad etc... thats not the point... shoot more to get better. This isn't about what matters to others, its the point of testing your eqipment and being better with it.
Which would not matter one bit to my nephew, as long as he could go bang bang bang bang... missed a BIG buck at home with his AR... got off 5 rounds... he SHOULD have been hunting with a single shot....

Put it on a lower, and went and test fired. I like it so far. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/splattermatic/20150622_181112_zpsvldvq4ir.jpg)
