[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1463833, member: 30902"] I was too until I figured out just how expensive speed is and how quickly it kills barrels. I've loaded SMK's hot enough in the Swift to watch them self destruct before hitting a hundred yard target. Years ago we did the same with the .17 Rem and 7mm RM. I purposely shoot very tough bullets today that open consistently and I'll shoot more for the neck or spine/shoulder junction. Frangibles and bullets that fail to open at all with both get you into trouble especially on lung shots so I don't shoot them at all anymore given a choice. As long as I can keep getting the Peregrines and Interbonds I see no need to ever change again. [/QUOTE]
