Oh Hell no:eek: The wife one year went and put santa hats on the animals and lights on a Caribou's antlers. I took them all down as it made them look ridiculous.

Nice buck Dean, from the north east? I bet a Ruger #1 270 did the work.

I think I have that same Bullfight Poster from the early 60's from Barcelona Spain when I was in Uncle Sam's care. I was stationed in Poitiers France as a teenager.

Todd Kaltenbach 12-13-2015 01:03 PM

This one is from Malaga on the Costa del Sol from either 1965 or 1966.

Phil Yearout 12-13-2015 01:47 PM

Yep; ready!

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.

Rich Anderson 12-14-2015 09:52 AM

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:

Fred Preston 12-14-2015 10:02 AM

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

Rich Anderson 12-14-2015 10:04 AM

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

charlie cleveland 12-14-2015 07:52 PM

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!

You need some Christmas Decorations, too:

Rich Anderson 12-15-2015 07:23 PM

I have a 250/3000 also a Pre64 M70 and was lucky to find 50 new cases and a friend who gave me about 60 more. I'm set for a very long time for this one. It's another great caliber that has fallen out of favor with the masses.
