I’m confused,don’t they like eating meat?
Perhaps they have another meaning for having their meat out??
Glad I don’t understand them at all.

Get some Lapua
I bought a bunch of Winchester 22-250 back before Lapua 22-250 was available
it served me well but once Lapua became available I had to get some.

Thanks BCB....
Great picture of 3 great rounds that I hope will be around for a long time.
Would be great to see other companies get on board with the 17WSM.
Once you shoot a 17WSM you will be hooked.

He must be aiming towards retirement if he is not taking anymore work in too.
