    My insider source said the ammo production of Barnes and Sierra was the beginning of the end. Ammo companies pulled back on their use of their bullets once they became competitors. The folks who made those choices are long gone. This might actually be a good thing. Time will tell.
    Good Shooting, MarkCO

    Thanks for the info, Mark. I think the little 120gr. in 7mm-08 are the schnitz. I haven't found any other factory ammo in that loading.
