Is this the first question you’ve avoided or do you make a practice of it?

Care to explain why you used the loaded phrase of “high power rifle” when that is a known gun grabber phrase often used by the media to describe all rifles no matter what their caliber?

Or you could check my join date again.

PS. It’s duct tape. For taping ducts. Not ducks.

Guess again, Freddie Kruger. It’s Duck Tape as well.

Get your ducks in a row and your tapes straight:

Hang on a minute. "High Power" is simply a category of rifle used in competition - usually military calibers such as the .30-06, .308 and yes, even the .223. The designation is to differentiate those events from the smallbore (rimfire) rifle competition events.

It has nothing to do with the actual muzzle energy or velocity of the cartridge, so ironically the media's use of that phrase is more often correct than when they trot out the "assault" nonsense.
