I believe that the only thing left is the Winchester 100gr. 

I have a three of 250-3000, a 99 and a couple of bolt guns.  It is one of my favorite deer hunting rounds and if your not a fur hunter it is a great coyote gun.

It is getting to be a reloaders cartridge.

After the first shot the rest are just noise.

Great deer round!  Absolutely no recoil.  However, factory rounds are hard to come by sometimes.  You made a good buy.
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I just found about a half dozen 25-3000 rounds in a drawer and had no idea what they were for. Any body want them? I live in Issaquah.

Thought I'd drop this out there.  Did a quick check on-line to verify as I was once told this.  The .250-3000 Savage cartridge and the .250 Savage cartridge are the same.  You can buy the .250 savage round today in sporting goods stores...

Here's a couple links for reference:
