Here is a reprint of an article Jack O‘Connor wrote 63 years ago in 1963. That was a time of E Type Jaguar, the Space Race and Cold War. You got your news from a newspaper and you communicated by letter. Mail Order did exist. You had a catalogue, you looked up what you wanted and sent an order with cheque or postal order and few days or weeks later the postman would deliver it to your door as part of his daily rounds. And you had things called magazines which had ling interesting articles about things that you were interested in.
And the internet and smart phones didn’t exist. Nor did the 6.5 Creedmoor. But life expectancy - well you were doing very well if you got to 65 which was retirement age. Oh and the War was closer in time than 9/11 is to all of us today. But reading this article- everything or nothing much has changed.

Why Some Rifle Cartridges Endure, and Others (Even Favorites) Die Out
OL's former shooting editor wrote about the life and death of many rifle cartridges. His lessons from 60-plus years ago remain relevant.
