Semi popular......youre terribly out of touch bud. Theyll be here with brass in spades 25 years from now unless we are using rail guns.

I suggest you pay attention to rifles in the field and ammunition sales. They are easily in the top 10 ammo sales for magnums every year since introduction.

Every WSM Ive owned fed fine in push feeds and CRFs. Not like my H&H in a pre64 but more than adequate.
