Just saw this on Facebook. Any one have any insight?

Just a wild guess with zero proof. But it's probably a combination of too busy overall to have a whole team travel, as well as they likely have enough data from the last few years that it's pretty big diminishing returns.

That is a fair assessment, I did think it was fairly daunting to be at all the matches they are. Also seems fairly extreme to stop completely.

Probably big parts of it. I'd also add that if there aren't new bullets coming to market in significant numbers then the value in crowdsourcing ballistics data isn't enough to justify the effort. If it costs them $20k to show up and they only get two new bullet reads to add to their list, then they might as well just do it themselves. The PDCs weren't some grand altruism. It was data harvesting to build their statistical models. That effort has to be justified by the result.
