Home Forums Reloading Varmint Rifles Great Deal on a Tikka Varmint Rifle

You'd think that there are enough LH shooters to make a run of them a couple of times a year. I guess the bean counters don't see it.



For years, I've been saying that I will stop, or at least cut back. It isn't happening.



I put a box together of some bullets that I want to try. It includes several bulk deals I've bought over the years. This is what I took off my bullet shelves to try in the Tikka. I discovered that I have over 2,000 Rem bulk bullets - mostly 50 gr. PSPs, but also 45 SP and 55 gr PSPs. Remington doesn't sell them as components bullets anymore.

Winchester still sells 46 gr HPs and 50 gr. PSPs, but they aren't the bargain they used to be. These are Canadian dollars, but Win 46HPs are $28/100 ($21.50US/100). Win 50PSPs are $25/100 ($19.25US/100). A quick look at Midway shows the 50 PSPs selling for $15US/100.

When I started reloading, I bought up any Win or Rem bulk offerings, as well as anything lying around on gun show tables. You can still find deals, but they are harder to sniff out.
