[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1375362, member: 30671"] Changes in bullet technology, changes in how we use bullets, a back and forth between consumer demand and supply, shooter perception secondary to actual experience, vs marketing. The .30-06 started with a 1-10" twist to launch a 220 grain round nose. Changes in other aspects of the game, such as optics, changed the game to hunting at a bit more range. Folks switched to lighter bullets, and the old twist no longer mattered for most .30-06 users. More changes in technology, more range newer bullets, and we have pushed the envelope once again.
