At the very real risk of going off at a tangent I spent a morning in the NRA museum about 3 years ago doing some research and got into conversation with Ted Molyneux the curator.
Ted shot for GB many years ago and was active in the days when 7.62mm had just taken over from .303, he recalled a visit some friends of his did to Norwayicon and the Raufoss factory where they were given a complimentary box of 7,62mm x 51 to try at Bisley.
Ted said that until they tried it nobody had realised just how bad some of the RG was!
