Hmmm it seems that our gun magazines can be a little different here in the UK. One writer I can think of did an article on the .30-06 an handloads for it. The rifle was a BSA export model with roll over comb for teh US market not a new rifle but one he brought for the testing. I can vouch for that fact as I knew wher eit came from as I had looked it over myself but brought a BSA CF2 in 7x57 as it was like new and seemed unfired but for proof.
I took issue with some of the writers comments and so e-mailed the magazine and got a reply from him and an offer that I could buy the rifle off him for what he paid for it. I didn't follow up on that as I didn't need a 30-06 at that time. So at least some writers here do buy the test rifles however editors still will not allow bad press on test products. A writer I knew had his first artcle kicked back as it was too factual so that too happens
