    Philip Holden wrote a chapter some ?????40-50 years ago now.....222 the controversial one..... NOTHING written then is so out of date now OTHER THAN PROJECTILES AND RANGEFINDERS........ rangefinder takes the guess work out if you going to shoot past 150 yards.......and wee tiny mono projectiles,like 50 grn barnes have really upped the ability of the tiny .224 calibre by giving it some expansion and lots of penertration.
    other than those two things NOTHING has changed..... what WAS good,is still good
    what WAS shit...still is.
