That's the way it is here too,I been offered more that that for mine...I've always shot Remington 100gr pointed soft points in mine,and still have better than nine boxes because when the old Western auto closed down years ago dad bought all they had at auction,Their marked for $12 dollars a box,.I'm gonna start using it more now than I have for a long time,and will be reloading my brass as I shoot them up.Mine does good with the 100psp,and shoots nice round holes in a target,but I was considering going to a lighter bullet when I reload,because from what I've read the 99s don't like long bullets.But I'd like to stick with 100s..Which are shorter them speer,or those nosler partitions?
