Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Do you reload or buy factory for your deer hunting??

I shoot my reloads in all my deer rifles.

ain't bought a factory round in over 30 years

Yes!

GWB

Have to buy factory every once in awhile for the brass I can't find. 307 ww , 7-30 Waters, 25-20, 35 rem etc.. bought a case of 6 C once primarily for the brass when I couldn't find any brass and it was a fair to midlin deal. Mostly load my own. Bought some 55 fmj m193 and 62 gr green tip a time or two just to compare accuracy with my loads. Like making my own..mb

Twice ever, 6mmARC and 30-30. (not counting shotgun slugs)
I load for both of those, just worked out that I had factory ammo on hand and it shot well.

(quick look at my notes says I've deer hunted with 36 different calibers, again not counting shotgun slugs or muzzle loaders. Or three pistols that while I have actually shot deer with them, I don't consider finishing them off hunting lol)
