Didn't know where to put this so I stuck it here. I know most of you reload but if you know someone who doesn't pass it on.

Re: Heads up.
interesting, thanks for posting this info .... if I could only have 1 rifle, it would be our Remington 700 BDL chambered for 300 WBY .... it has a large bottleneck, belted cartridge that I can't help but wonder that caliber ammo was substituted by mistake ....
