The very first cartridge I reloaded with my Dad in the early 1970's was the .30 cal. 150gr. Spire Point for his Sako L579 in 308 WCF and I used the very same bullet when I got my 30-06 a few years later.
Over the years I have used lots of bullets that came out of red boxes in everything from a 222 Rem. to 458 Lott and even with all of the choices we have today I still use lots of them.
I as well hate to see some of the classics be discontinued but I get it, the shooting world has changed a great deal since the late 1960's when I learned to shoot and hunt.
If your rifle likes them and then placed properly you won't be disappointed in the them.
