Need some help gents. I have been shooting the Hornady Custom 150 grain SST for some years now out of my 30.06. I am down to less than 10 rounds left and still can’t find any. Any of you found any? If not what have you gone to that preforms as well as this round does. Hate really to change, my 700 preformed great with this round.
Any advise here would be great.
Thanks all

Pretty sure it's discontinued (for now anyways) might be time to swap.

The big problem is finding any name brand 30-06 ammo

Just a thought and might not be available either but Hornady interbond might have same profile and possibly same poi.
They are expensive and maybe not available or be same jacket/profile?idk just a thought

I have the same exact problem you have. Same gun, same ammo. It was weird, felt like I was reading my own post on here haha. I have posted on year a few times over the years looking for the exact thing and have been lucky enough to buy a few boxes from the generous members here. It is nearly impossible to find, but last year I did see a few crazy expensive boxes while searching the internet. Not 100% sure what website it was though. I currently have 3 boxes that I hope will last me a long time. Good luck, in my opinion the best deer killing ammo ever made. Drops Em dead every time.

Glad I’m not the only one that can’t find them. Thanks.

You can load hunting ammo with a minimum of equipment and components. I started loading when I got my 280 in the early 90s. 280 ammo wasn’t so common then. 154g SST and RL-19 or IMR4350 makes for a very satisfying shooting experience.

Mennen/BCD you two should get presses&dies. The 280 & Imr4350 are like milk&cookies. Yes primers are high but getting less scarce.

I have some 150 grain SST bullets but they're useless if you don't reload.
