Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Who knows what will happen?

The purchase of Remington/Bushmaster/DPMS/Savage/H&R/Marlin/etc..etc. by a holding company, doesn't seem to have helped the individual company's quality.

I know a few people that work there and they're not worried about it. Could be a good thing...

It could inject new energy into the company. Right now, the most innovative bullet manufacturers don't seem to include Sierra among them.

ive bought a ton of bullets from them and even call to see if anyone was thinking of a heavier bullet for 7.62x39 shooters. I would love a 138-9 grain bullet for my Yugo sks.

Sierra has some pretty good military contracts, so they may have been concentrating on those?? In any event, you could be correct in thinking what you stated. Seems they got to the Match King line and slowed in the innovation department.
