I have never been too concerned about cost or if I can get ammo at WalMart. If I have to rely on WalMart for ammunition then I should be using a 30/06 or a 308 or a 243.


And oddly enough I hunted Africa with all three smile and for when I'm feeling "plebean" I do also have an 06 and a pocket T-shirt to fit in at Wal-Mart smile


A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
