I reached into the back corner of the safe this afternoon and pulled out a heavy barreled model70 in 225 win. My daughter went with me and we shot the first woodchuck this rifle has killed in several years. I may have to make it my go to rifle this spring
I am one gun away from Happy

I have a model 70 in .225 Win, where do you get ammo? Do you reload? I haven't been able to find either factory ammo or the reloading dies.
