[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1396716, member: 12995"] Yeah, I keep forgetting that NAMMO bought them out... I guess that means us .25 caliber shooters are screwed. Sad how gun/caliber trends are no better off than hipster and clothing trends. Here today, gone tomorrow. Sad thing is, most gun/cartridge trends stem from armchair snipers who want to use what the .mil uses, so they can feel cool when they talk to their other buddies. It all started with the troops bringing back their .30-06 surplus rifles they used in war, and sporterized them for hunting rifles. Then the .308, then the .300WM, then .338 Lapua, now it's .300 Norma Mag. And with the 6.5CM popularity rising, I wouldn't be surprised if it won't find a way to cross over from the private sector into the MIC, even if only in obscure aspects or special purposes. :rolleyes: I don't have the money to stock up on anything right now. I'm actually trying to sell some extra scopes, fishing equipment, my bass boat, and other things, just to pay my bills... When the money goes away, the toys are first to go. Good thing I consider guns as tools, and not toys...Because tools never get sold, as they have a useful purpose. [/QUOTE]
