[QUOTE="Lenny Foffa, post: 2252934, member: 100742"] I would like to suggest to Mr. Social Hunter 88, if you did get into hand loading, the 257 Weatherby Mag you really want would/could, become one of your favorite hunting rifles for all deer sized game. Not to mention having fun shooting tiny groups at the 300 yard range. At 100 bucks a box in todays market, you could purchase 10 to 12 boxes of Factory Ammo over the next 3 or 5 years , or , take that same money and buy what you need to make your perfect hand loads for a very long time. I made that decision back in 1980 when I received a Weatherby Mark V in 270 Weatherby Mag as a Christmas gift from my parents. I remember buying my first RCBS Rock Crusher ( or Some thing ) big green press, and my first set of Dies, and shell holder. I was hooked !!! Going to the range every week that I could afford to buy a box of ammo. Saving Brass!! Reading EVERYTHING about reloading!!! I remember so well shooting my first two mule deer and an antelope in 1981, in Wyoming, with my own loads. What a thrill!!! Buddy ,Do yourself a favor, get the rifle you want, in the caliber you want, and make prefect loads for it and shoot much more often. [/QUOTE]
