I never watch this station, but surfing the net, saw the claim and the HEADLINE. If what he said is accurate, it's demonstrably false and he should be PUNISHED.

I'm wondering where he went astray? Is it possible he means something to do with the standard cartridge used in 1969ish? That now they are using a longer, heavier bullet and they are using a faster twist, what the hell is it, maybe 1 turn in 7 1/2" inches?

Based on longer range capability, maybe some of the more recent civilian models have a tighter twist to handle heavier bullets? So, he doesn't get that technical, but if he was halfway tuned in to whoever was providing him the information? I don't know?

So, I guess you could say it's deadlier at extended range; or something?

But, that's slicing it pretty thin and I am not trying to give him something to save face. Anyway, he does not give his reason, just makes the unsupported claim.

Good hunting. El Bee
