Post by: shirah86 on August 29, 2007, 09:57:59 AM
I bought a Weatherby 300 magnum last year and im having a hard time finding shells for the darn thing anybody know where i can get some without having to ride to bass pro, local walmart doesnt carry them anymore and the guy at sports authority hasnt even heard of the size

That gun shop on 92 and combee, used to be guns galore, cant remember the new name. Its the same people that run Teneroc shooting range, they seem to have everything.

FWIW, You could start making your own, save your shells.
          It's pretty cool making your own rounds & saves a little $$ once you buy the tools to do it.

Congrats on the Weatherby , I have a couple of them.
I have one in .270 Weatherby Mag and a Vangaurd in .300 Win Mag. both nice but cost is usually 2 1/2 times that of a standard caliber. Try to mail order your ammo from Midsouth Shooters Supply or other supply store.

The shop on 92 & Combee is called Ultimate Arms.  Guns Galore is a few blocks up on 92.  Hal's gunshop in Bartow should have what you need.

Hal's has a lot of the hard to find shells.  Guns galore also has a good selection.  You can't find anything at the Sports Authority or Walmart in Lakeland anymore.  Also, thingy's in Brandon has some stuff Sports Authority doesn't.  One more thing, I've ordered shells out of the Bass Pro catalog before if you have thee time.
