Very exciting news.
Make sure you post this over in the 223, 6mm, and 25 cal threads.

The outdoor wire. I googled "new sierra bullets" and came up with a press release. Looks like they may be available early January?

It’s real. Did not think they were announcing them yet.

Called sierra. A salty CS rep said I shouldn’t believe anything I read on Rokslide.

I wanted the 25 cal specs. He went as far as to say that a new 25 cal TMK was not on their roadmap.

Funny.

Thus tracks with what I would expect out of that company. Hope I’m wrong because I’d love to test some 25s but we shall see.

Oh there are people there that really don’t like us/RS. But, there are people on the other side as well.

Why not? If you care to share?

Why not? If you care to share?

Same reason people get personality problems here- RS, and in this case Ryan and especially I state the truth- with data, and that goes against what lots of people have as preconceived beliefs. They are unable to de-tether their “I like/I feel/I believe”, from “objective, demonstrable reality”.

The 77gr TMK for instance- despite it’s history, and despite a nearly 700 page thread with hundreds and hundreds of necropsies from coyotes to brown bears, and despite that RS is the reason TMK’s went out of stock years ago and continue to go out of stock: there are people that have stated they would discontinue every TMK made if they could because “no 223 should ever be used to hunt with”- regardless of the reality of is terminal ballistics. “Feelings”, not “data”.

As Thomas Sowell said: “People will forgive you for being wrong, but they will never forgive you for being right—especially if events prove you right while proving them wrong”.
