I bought mine because it was advertised so hard and flooded the market. No, not because im a fanboy type. In fact , ive spent most of my.life as a classic anti fanboy . I hate slick advertising that deceives the average uninformed consumer.
My thoughts are, if the round is saturating the market , components are going to be readily avaliable in times of conflict or fill in the blank .
I needed a round that wont paralyze me when i fire it because of nasty neck issues, but shoots a bullet that holds up well enough for the occasional 500 yd shot on SE whitetails . What i really didnt expect was just how easy it was to put a 6.5 man bun together that shoots extremely accurate .
So...readily avaliable components, mild recoil, good ballistics for my area and game, inherent accuracy .
Not the end all, be all cartridge some less educated people might have been tricked into touting , but a fine shooting cartridge .
