I found a guy...
He was selling some 6.5 Federal gold shells with 130 Berger bullets.
 There not really "Hunting" bullets, we have some of those.
But it takes a box just to break in the Barrel to Howa's specs.
Shoot 10 clean after each then shoot 10 more clean every other shot. Let cool after each.
Being brand new I'll do it, at the same time we will rough sight in the scope, which we don't have yet.
$1.67 a shell. Kind of high but we got some and will have 120 brass to load later.


What $200 worth of Grendel ammo looks like.
Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box

I think you are lucky to have found some ammo the way things are now. 

I see a lot of fun coming in your summer.
