oo_buck Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 A friend of mine recieved an older Model 700 in .222 Rem Mag, and cannot find ammo for it. Are there any available commercial loads for this gun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oo_buck Posted March 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Re: Remington 700 in .222 Rem Mag????? I know he got it from his grandfather. I've seen it a few times, and it is in "like new" condition. He has 19 cartridges left. It is a very accurate, and nice looking rifle. He just wishes he could shoot it, but doesn't want to dry up "the last remaing shells on earth"..... I told him he should take up reloading....

David_218 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Re: Remington 700 in .222 Rem Mag????? Try looking at: www.midwayusa.com they should have .222 Mag ammo and if not then brass for reloading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remington does not list it anymore. He can buy some custom loaded ammo from a few places, but thats it. The reloader can easily get brass to handload. Thats not a problem.
