Because they have to market magic-bean/magic-pixie-dust stuff that only
they manufacture. I mean, to read the press on this new stuff, you'd be shocked to learn that anyone ever even
died in the Civil War.
To be honest, the guy who home-rolls a defensive WC load is probably going to be a more deadly shot with it than the fella who buys the a 20-round box of the latest RemFedChesterBonBore TAPDXTALON'Ball round that got written up in
ShootingAmmoBlast.
Because he'll have shot a hell of a lot more of it through
his gun, and he'll have tailored his load to do what he needs from
his gun.
Don't get me wrong, I like magic beans as much as the next guy, but you don't
need a magic bean . . . or pixie dust. If people spent half the time actually
practicing and studying shot-placement with
Gray's Anatomy that they do arguing over pixie-dust bullets and tastes-great/less-filling caliber issues, folks would be a lot better off.
Now let me get back to worrying over what I should carry in my new SIG P220 Compact Elite SAO - the Hornady TAP 200-gr +P rounds that do 950 fps from the gun or the Winchester Ranger RA45TP 230-gr +Ps that do 900 fps from it.
All you boys have a
great weekend and a wonderful Father's Day!
