[QUOTE="sedancowboy, post: 2627016, member: 85874"] You proved my point perfectly! I know that is not what you wanted to hear but that is exactly why SAMMI exists. The people who own old rifles that are chambered in 6.5X55 should be able to shoot 6.5X55 ammo in their gun safely and not have it blow up. We all do it, the 45 Colt comes to mind I load mine hot and shoot them in lever actions and strong revolvers but that don't work for the average Joe who goes to the store and buys 45 Colt ammo to shoot in the old revolver his granddaddy left him. I hear you and I am sad to see these old cartridges fall by the wayside and fall into obsolescence and the old guns end up unusable. But we really don't want people to get injured because we won't except the standards SAMMI has set for our benefit. What I am saying is let's except that fact and move on it is for our own good. Let's also stop harping on companies who come out with new cartridges when it is to our benefit. Henry [/QUOTE]
