Ive got a 700 in 06 that is one of my favorite guns. It shoots the Hornady 150 interlock boat tail into 3/4s of an inch at a 100 yards. Thing is anything else ive shot is closer to double that. Well I was sorting through stuff for crop damage deer shooting this fall and saw I was down to about 20 rounds of ammo for it. So I figured id loads a hundred or so up. Looked on the shelf and no bullets. About every other 150 grain 30 cal bullet made but none of these. Don't know why the mind melt. I about always order a box when im down to a half a box of something I use a lot. But not this time. so I went on line and there sold out everywhere. Seems its a bullet Hornady is discontinuing. Got lucky though. Called my buddy and was talking guns and told him about it and he walked out in his loading room and found 3 boxes. He said he give me two of them because he rarely uses that bullet and didn't even know why he had them. So Ive got 200 of them to last the rest of my life. I guess if that means only shooting deer and a few rounds to make sure the gun is still zeroed it should last me. Moral of the story. If your gun likes something buy yourself 500 of them. Better to die with some left over then to run out.
