Phil I don't suppose that box of Savage 250/3000 ammo is full?? I bought a Pre64 M70 in that caliber and boy is brass hard to find for that one:banghead:

Nope; display only, sadly. I'll check to see if I have saved any of my brass. I don't shoot it much, but when I do I'd be happy to send the brass your way as I don't reload it.

Thanks I would appreciate that. It's a great caliber for deer just as many of the old one are/were. The 257R and 300 Savage are two more that sadly have fallen out of favor. Our younger hunters seem to think they need a 300 Ultra mag to kill a deer:eek:

Can't 22/250 brass be readily re-engineered to 250/3000?

Yes you can fire form it to 250 Savage. The Savage was the parent case for the then wildcat 22-250.

seen a few boxes of this ammo at the gun show this past weekend....always thought i would like to have a 300 savage rifle or the 250 3000...charlie

Look at the fuss the animal rights people razed over Ceasel and Dean shoots Rudolf. I had a friend who"s wife used to hang her under garments from the mounts on his walls. He was a little inbarist. I thought it was amusing.

I occasionally see a few boxes of 300 Savage but seems like I rarely see any .250-3000. Most sellers seem to either know about them and try to get a premium price, or sell them cheap since they rarely get asked about them. I sure try to buy 'em when I find the latter!

Nice selection of old doubles !!!
