[QUOTE="muzzletalk, post: 2487625, member: 113581"] "But I believe the larger issue is a group of buyers who are overly fixated on velocity at all costs." So is there also an issue with the Weatherby crowd? Maybe the 6.5 SAUM or 7 SAUM shooters? I think you misunderstand the concept of the Sherman cartridge. You certainly misunderstand the people. The majority of the Sherman shooters look at the efficiency in the cartridge. Especially the efficiency to run a true short action in the SS line to compete with the larger powder draining magnums. "Most are new reloaders and have no previous experience with wildcats." Where exactly are you getting your information from??? You say you don't own a Sherman so I assume you don't follow the Sherman crowd. Shermans are a wildcat cartridge. As such, they take more experience and knowledge to reload. This is not any different than any other wildcat cartridge. When I started shooting 6GT, I didn't even have the brass to shoot without forming it. I formed brass off of a chamber print, however, I've been handloading for some time now. I don't think I'd advise anyone new to reloading to jump into a wildcat of any kind. Proof has already admitted to Rich that they have some issues they are working through and here you are placing blame on the shooters with inaccurate statements and unsupported opinions. I do not think it's to much to ask for a company to be held accountable for their products. [/QUOTE]
