Title: Can anyone use a set of 250 Savage reloading dies?
Post by mavt on May 5^th, 2020 at 6:45pm

I have a Lee 2 die and shell holder set for a 250 Savage I have had for 10 years and loaded exactly 36 cartridges for someone back then who never came back for more. Also have the remaining 64 bullets I believe are Rem 86gr flat point I was loading for a practice load I'll include.

Would rather give them to someone that can use them rather than look at them on my shelf. PM if you can use them.

Nice article. Thanks for sharing it. Larry Koller in "Shots at Whitetails" (1948) was a big proponent of the little 250-3000 back when the "plodding " cartridges as Haviland calls them were more popular.

The cartridge isn't very popular anymore and there's a slightly different crowd on here but thought I try here first.
