I gave it up. I don't shoot a rifle enough to justify it. I'm almost all archery now. But I did just pay into a hunting lease. Figured pork meat might be worth a bullet or two.

Was in a little gun shop today, and just for you I checked to see if they had .257 Weatherby. They did, 3 boxes, 2 for $39.00, and one for $62.00. I wonder what the difference is, but that last box needs to add a couple of points to your buck's rack. If I had to pay $3.00 a round for ammo, I'd hunt pigs I could kill with a .25-06.
Regardless, I'm sorry you drove 2 hours and they didn't have the bullets they said they did.
