264 mag ammo and Lee Loader
Found this when cleaning out the garage: 50 rounds of reloaded 140 grain ammo, plus box of factory W-W 140 grain ammo. Also a Lee Loader for same.
Loader: $20 TYD.
70 rounds ammo: $30. I can't mail ammo, so you'll need to live in the Los Angeles area to pick up. (I live in Altadena.)
Please PM me.

.264 Winchester Magnum. It's not too popular now, but it still knocks critters down just fine. Check any loading manual for more info.
Rifle was stolen a while ago or I'd still be using the ammo and loader.

If the ammo is the older WW stuff it's the dual diameter stuff that shoots great!the 264 was a speed demon when it came out but the 7 mag won out on most counts.They are hard to load for...real finicky,but great open country rounds.

RE: 264 mag ammo and Lee Loader
I don't know if you are aware of it, but the 7mm is faster out of the barrel then the 264 win mag ... But the 264 come into its own after 300yrds and is faster then a 7mm weatherby... The 264 is starting to make a come back because Remington is chambering it in the sendero ,and CDL SF 700 Model rifles in this CAL. The bullets in 6.5mm have better BC ratings and higher sectional density for the same weight bullets in 7mm... Which makes for a very flat shooting hard hitting round. Something we need on the prairies where 300 yrd shoots are not out of the norm...
