Stopped in at a small flea market today and lo and behold among the small amount of gun stuff there was a box of Hornady 200 gr 348 bullets. :shock: At $25 I scooped them up. You can still get these on Midway for $38 plus shipping when available, but I've been looking and they're never available.
These are nice and shiny so they should be in good condition for reloading and hunting. I'm slowly but surely getting geared up to do some reloading for Dad's 348.
It was a good morning. I also stopped in at an older gentleman that knows just about all things about military guns. I showed him my 03 sporter I recently bought that has the serial number covered up. He took one look at it and said it's an 03A3 action. He could immediately tell by the dovetail cut into the rear receiver ring. 03A3 wasn't produced until way into the nickel steel actions so I'm good to go with full power loads on that.
