Did the gun industry sponsor hunts for gun writers 30-40 years ago? Back in the days of Jack O'Connor, Elmer Kieth etc.
The reason I ask is, when the industry was trotting out a new rifle or cartridge, how much experience did the writer have with the cartridge, rifle, whatever, before he started dispensing his expert opinion and helping us to form ours.
