I bought a No. 1S in 218 Bee at the LGS that belonged to a guy behind the counter - neat rifle. Shortly after, I was in Cheyenne for work and stopped in a small mom & pop gun shop and talked with a nice couple (owners I presumed) for a while. When I mentioned I had recently found a 218 Bee, he walks in the back and comes out with a box of once fired 218 Bee brass. He said their were 800 and asked if I was interested. When he said $40...
Later on, a friend of mine mentioned a custom No. 3 in 22 K-Hornet was at the same LGS. He was interested, but when I checked it out, I had to have it. I felt guilty that I bought it out from under him, so sold him my 218 Bee with most of the brass (I think I still have a couple hundred pieces). He doesn't shoot the 218 Bee and I think I could talk him out of it, but the K-Hornet is a lighter handier rifle and shoots better. Then I've considered rechambering the K-Hornet to a Mashburn Bee...
Oh the gyrations I go through (Looney comes to mind)
