[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1371472, member: 12995"] The confusion should not be a factor. If you don't know about your own rifle, then you don't have much business trying to shoot long range or boutique bullets in the first place. That's how animals get maimed and hurt by crappy hunters trying to "wing-it" when they don't have a clue what they're doing, or they're trying to hunt outside of their own skillset. As for the twist rates, let them figure this out for themselves, or by asking someone who does know, that can help educate them. Why should those of us who "can" and "know" have to suffer for those who "can't" and "don't"? That's almost a communist way of thinking put into a gun perspective...By saying that we should let the gun markets tell us what's best for us, instead of us knowing what's best for ourselves and our guns... I'm not trying to insinuate anything, I'm just saying that I don't believe in idiot-proofing things. Let the people figure things out for themselves...If they survive, hopefully they learned their lesson...If they didn't, then good riddance to their DNA continuing to swim around the shallow end of the genetic cess-pool. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
