I use to reload for my 2 rifles some years back but with hunting now you have less rifle and more time with a bow, then black powder and shotguns and rifles are short changed in many states now. I had one rifle rebarreled 8 years ago and used hornady's heavy mag 139gr sst ammo for break in. Turns out it shot 2" 400 yard groups, with the new 28" kreiger barrel velocites where just over 3400 fsp. Best of both worlds with factory ammo. Went back and bought 4 boxes more and just bought 5 box's of the newest loads. At a range the new ammo shoots so close to the old it just down matter. Just killed off the last of the old hornady stuff. Even my 308 with georgia arms 125gr bt at 3000f.p.s. or darn close nothing seems to have changed there for 14 years. Buy some and it also prints just as well with out any scope ajustments. I don't shoot my rifles much anymore and never had the groups and f.p.s. out of reloads i get out of these to factory loads. Now if i shot alot??
