Are you going to listen to me in English...

Or do I have to speak to you in 12 gauge?

Been that kind of day... Am in a foul, foul humor. Doesn't happen often, but there it is...

I'll write about S&W coming out with an AR in .300 Whisper, J.D. Jone's proprietary .30 cal cartridge based on the 5.56 (and is a virtual twin of the .300 AAC Blackout) tomorrow...

Don't you mean the .300 AAC Blackout is a virtual twin of the 300 Whisper? The .300AAC is just a way to produce a round without paying royalties to JDJones. Just like calling it the 300/221Fireball IMNSHO.

The 300 BLK was created as a SAAMI standard - for companies and individuals who won't use wildcats. The fact that it is royalty free is just a bonus.

so why did S&W call it the whisper instead of the now SAAMI cartridge 300 BLK ?

I wonder if it's because S&W isn't owned by Freedom Group?
