Wasn’t aware it was possible for a person to have “to much” money.

I never dreamed there would be day when I could not walk into any sporting goods store anywhere and pick up 30-06 Rem Corlok or Win Powerpoint as much as I want for under $30 a box. I didn't even bother reloading because most of our Whitetail are killed inside 150 and the old classics killed them dead and were plenty accurate enough for that. So I shot as much as I wanted whenever I felt like it. Now it is one shot to verify zero before the hunt and 2-4 a year on deer. And praying I don't have to sight in. I wouldn't dream of buying a new scope because I would have to burn ammo to sight it in. Luckily I like the one I have


During the height of the great ammo shortage, every gun store I checked still had 7mm WSM ammo. Not sure why, but that was the one ammo I saw everywhere. Also saw a lot of 243 WSSM.


Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

I noticed that too. Six months ago I could have bought all I wanted of 7mm WSM, 28 & 30 Nosler, 375 H&H, 7X57 and 8MM Mauser ammo, along with probably several others I'm not recalling off of the top of my head. I'm guessing warehouses got so low on inventory somebody came across a stack of boxes and said, "hey, I forgot we had these".

A nib m70 so chambered came to live with me when the price dropped to $500. It works well for me at the range and in the hunting field.
