[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1371458, member: 12995"] The .308 Win has been doing this for the last 65 years... When the publications started declaring the .308 Win as "old and outdated" is when it created its own vacuum for something else...The .260 Rem that Remington itself almost single-handedly destroyed. Which, 10 years later, allowed the 6.5 Creed to be developed and then become instant success to fill the .260 Rem's shoes, when they tried to kill it off. Basically, the gun rags acted as judge, jury, and executioner for the .308 Win by thought-seeding false information to its readers, allowing some new blood to fill a spot that didn't really or previously exist, that they themselves had created. That's how this game works. That's how everything in life works these days. People create bullcrap, and then lie about their competition to make it seem like it's old and outdated, and create this fake need for something new. Look at cars, look at politics, look at how the democrats try to do this to the laws we already have. Also, I've seen some of these "new shooters" you speak of...We might be better off without them. Wearing man-bun haircuts and skinny jeans while vaping on their new "box mod" in-between hot & cold cycles at the range, talking about how their new 6.5 Creed can take down 3 elephants lined up in a row at 2.5 miles away... Not all are this way, but I've witnessed it so much I've stopped going to the local ranges to avoid these gun-toting hipsters. And I mean that they are literally hipsters, who also like guns.
