Yeah.......that's his version of the story, no telling what all went on between him & the factory rep either, He probably didn't like the answer & got .

I have a new Winchester SXR in a 300 wsm. I went thru several different boxes of different shells, shot a box of each before I found what it liked. I never dreamed it would shoot a 150gr core lokt in such a tight group at 200 yds. It blew the winchester ballistic tip, horanday st's & horanday preimums, federal preimums, vital shoks, etc.....out the water! Basically the cheapest bullet shot the best, who'd a thunk it! I was ready to throw the rifle in the garbage!
