    Well worth it
    It is a very interesting read, I first read it in Precision Shooting years ago.

    If you want to hear more about the Houston Warehouse then listen to someone who was there.

    The Houston warehouse story is an amazing study before the event of the very flash scientific equipment and a story of deduction.
    It was amazing alot of the groups they shot were tiny.
    Every thing from barrel length and concise weights of powder to neck tension.
    They found that somethings we worry about now days don't affect accuracy like very precise powder weights are not what affect accuracy.
    After reading the article several times over the years that's why I now own an amp annealler!

    They must have deep pockets
    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.

    I read an article about the development of the PPC, the amount of analysis on that before it was used in competition was quite an eye opener.
    They must've had pretty deep pockets, Palmisano and Pindell were also offering to underwrite Ruger, or another US manufacturer to produce 22 & 6PPC rifles.
