[QUOTE="The Oregonian, post: 1435935, member: 51405"] Bob Beck / EOL make ammo with the 195’s but you need a faster twist, i would guess. I think he also makes Berger 180’s. It isn’t cheap but no factory ammo is for that gun. Given that it is $2-$3 per round for brass, you should be able to sell it for half that, so that might offset the cost of ammo by $25 per box (pure guess as i haven’t seen a price on used brass for it) which helps, although I suppose you could do that with other rounds if the ammo has high quality brass (Lapua, Norma, Nosler, etc). There is some ammo available from obscure companies with a variety of bullets as well. You can get several boxes and see which shoots best in your rifle, then order that specific ammo again. It isn’t handloading but it is better than factory. But this is a costly approach, and not sure if the desire for factory ammo is due to cost of entry of reloading or time investment involved.
