Pronouncing Varget

[clearwater]

North 40 store has a 15% off everything sale today, so I went to see if they had any powder I needed. Got some Varget. I have never heard the name of it pronounced. I asked for Var-Jet. The sales lady corrected me if front of my peers and said "Oh, you mean Var-Get".

Staying humble.

I dont think this is pota(Y)to, pota(H)to,
kind of concern.

All is well. Most of us pronounce Varget like "target."

When it first started getting popular with match shooters using the 308, some folks called it "Var Gay" - good grief...

It's a mighty fine powder for many applications, no matter what folks call it.
