DWM, i enjoyed reading the article. thank you for making it possible.
He mentions the "Arcane" series by Kekkomen. This is a good read also and tells us the history of the true "Cats sneeze" loads.

We always called the fellow "The Mad Finn" . Respectfully called him this mind you. Some great info that got me started experimenting with very light or subsonic loads.

"The .30-06 is never a mistake." Townsend Whelen
"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph."
Thomas Paine
