I have happily bought into several cartridges in danger of vanishing as factory offerings--284 win, 350 mag, 338 rcm, 35 whelen, etc. I immediately bought reserves of brass beyond what I will ever use, it turns out. I am not afraid of soon-to-be-invisible but interesting stuff.
Me too. I just rebarreled to 6.5x57. I got the last 200 RWS cases in Australia and found a couple of factory boxes of Highland (PPU) ammo.
A few years ago when I got my Mauser M12 I got a 6.5x55. But the 6.5x57 was also available. I should of grabbed one when I had the chance as they are not listed anymore. It would of been a whole lot cheaper than what I went through to get my 6.5x57 up and running.
