I've seen this phrase used several times in reference to the .32, .40 (IIRC) and others, both pistol and rifle, and it has set me to wondering (never a good thing...):
What actually influences the "intrinsic accuracy" of a cartridge? How is this measured? Scientifically, objectively, or from non-documented long-term experience? Why doesn't accuracy depend more on the firearm than on the cartridge? What is the airspeed velocity of a swallow? (Wait, never mind that last one...)
Thanks in advance for the education!
