I have at least a dozen 223 Remingtons, in various types of firearms.

There is the "own" and there is the "have access to"

Way too tough of a question.

It's a personal concern among friends and I know, just as I don't, none of them own enough.

Bojon - Great point. Never really thought about the "own" vs the "have access to". Opens up a whole new world [and discussion], doesn't it?

Regards, Marcus.

Greetings Marcus:

It's hot here this weekend and I know the desert is supposed to be.Yesteday (the 4th) I plugged into the official weather station closest to our home and it peaked at 116.8 F and 6.7 % humidity. We have two months of this then it will turn down.

Planning to try out some new loads for the 30-06. Swifts 165 grn tomorrow evening.

The point I was trying to make is simply not all of us own a library but most of us have friends which if we joined forces with together, would garner a sizeable arsenal. That is all.

bojon;

Any particular reason for the Swift bullets?  Just asking.  I shoot the .30-06 also & refuse to pay the 'premium bullet' price.  I know my gun & load, & figure I can hunt up closer if I need to.  Or if I can't & the conditions suit me, I'll take the long shot also.  Not ridiculously long, but long enough.  Just don't subscribe to the 'magic bullet' theory I guess.

As Marcus will vouch for me I meet people from all over the world and this one time I met the President and CEO of Swift. We discussed business and one thing led to another and reloading came up. He sent me a box of 165. I hate to use them for targets shooting, but since I don't hunt buy rarely, I want to have the best load for them anyway.

See that is why I really like the 30-06  -- so versatile

Hey CB, the Hornady SST is considered the low end of premium bullets and they are not too expensive.
