Yes I'm aware of this issue. It is not one that Michael Petrov agreed with at all and I tend to side with him as such. I know this is highly controversial topic that I don't want to debate given the inability to objectively assess this independently.

What I don't know is whether these rifles, in good nick, can withstand any and all modern factory loads. Smokeless cartridges really aren't my game.
