I have heard it pronounced several ways. In any event it is a very fine chambering. I like the 225 or 250 Nosler partitions. In politics as in theology! "The heart of the wise inclines to the right, But the heart of the fool to the left." Ecclesiastes 10:2 | |||

I've always heard it pronounced "neither fish nor fowl, and a waste of perfectly good .30-06 brass"....  ...  | |||
