Welcome from Iowa! The hunt to find the firearm you want these days can be quite challenging...and ammo for it too.

Hello & Welcome from central W TN.
Congrats on that "first" Henry. ;)
Do you load your own, or will you be buying factory ammo?

I have the ability and materials to load my own. I’ve got plenty of 2400 and Accurate #9, primers, and 240 xtps. Does anyone have a recommended load for the 20” BBS?

Hey fellow believer. Welcome from Nebraska. I love the bbs line. Mine is a 357 carbine. Handiest rifle ever. Enjoy the forum and the great people here.

I'm not sure how I missed this - Welcome from central NC!!!

What part of SE PA are you at?

My dad worked for Boeing - so after being born in Kansas, we moved to SE PA when I was 2, and settled in West Chester - well, outside of it anyway. Grew up running around the farmlands and woods before the main line infiltrated west. Then I was gone!
