To buy, 222 brass is dearer than 223, at least around this area.

When fox skins were worth a shilling or two a mate of mine used a 17 Rem Mag, went off like a 25 pounder, the fox was dead before ya pulled the trigger, unless the little pill hit a blade of grass or a bush moth in the spotlight and poof! But what happened to it?
Just love progress...
