200??? 250??? I usually can't swing 500 but 200-250 would be ideal. Especially if starting load workup. I outright refuse to buy bullets that only come in 50 packs for my 6.5s. Maybe if I was hunting something huge, but I am not paying a dollar a projectile and spending 1.50 every time I pull the trigger. I shoot too much. I like to shoot mine before each outing because I am kind of rough on my guns. They rarely need adjustment, but it makes me more confident. You guys need to make a projectile for 45/70s!!! Then I could just have berger boxes lined up on the bullet shelves with nothing to ruin the beauty.
