[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2097567, member: 109862"] Yup haha. I don’t believe there’s any planned obsolescence going on. What I do believe or at least suspect is that the ammo manufacturers may be watering down the power on some older rounds to make the newer products look less redundant. my 2 primary hunting cartridges are examples of this and why I love handloading: 270 win and .300 win mag. Why on earth do most factory offerings for these two especially (along with the .30-06 and 7rem mag) fall a full 200 FPS short of what is readily attainable? Would no one see any real point to short mags and short action rounds in general? [/QUOTE]
