250-3000's suck.. ain't no reason to own one.

Which means, nobody should be looking in used gun racks for them. And sell off all that you own. They're obsolete.

Introduced 40 years before the 243, and capable of doing just as much. Take a 243 to the range and everybody goes, "Ho hum". Take a Savage 1920 or 1899 in 250 to the range and you'll have all the old timers coming over to drool and reminisce. The only downsides to this cartridge is the rate of twist in older rifles is 1 in 14" which makes for lightweight bullet selection (thank you Speer for 87gr Hot Cores!), and the lack of choice in factory cartridges. It's extremely easy to reload for though with common H4895 being perfect for this round.

It isn't just the "Campfire's Darling", check out the premium given to anything in 250-3000 when you find them on a gun rack. A whole lotta folks love them.
