Is a Sierra Matchking a non-expanding bullet? I thought that all bullets had to be FMJ, non-expanding, under the rules of modern warfare. I guess it could be classified as such, even though I know we have had a couple of discussions on here about whether a Matchking bullet should be used for hunting, and several people on the board have stated it expands quite well.

Of course, I might not be completely right about the rules of modern warfare.

I also thought I heard somewhere that the Marines were using .300 Win Mags as sniper rounds. I know the .308 has been used for a while, just thought the .300 Win Mag was also being used.

Last but not least, the "editorial police" are what keep this board civil and a joy to be on. When something gets edited, it usually deserves to be and it is usually discussed amongst several people before it gets edited. Whatever was said before is water under the bridge. I think we all should give the military a great amount of respect, because if they didn't do the dirty work for us, this nation wouldn't be such a great place to live in. Likewise, we should give the "editorial police" some respect too because without them this board wouldn't be quite as enjoyable. I have met Skinny in person, spoke to him several times on the phone, and sent him several e-mails. He is a nice, decent guy that devotes a good amount of his time to making the board a nice place to be, and he doesn't get paid for doing it. Let's not give him any flack for trying to keep it a nice place to be.
