I love the .250 savage also - I have 3 boxes of shells for the day I get one! Sadly, that day is looking farther and farther away. I also really like the old little guys like the 32-20 and 25-20, I understand the "cowboys" are starting to bring them back. Cheap to feed, quiet, no kick and substantially more killing power than a .22 rimfire, whats not to like? Also, can anyone tell me why the hornet made a comeback and the Bee is still outdated and relatively unknown. It seems like a more modern, efficient design while still keeping in the same ballistic field as the hornet. I would love to have a little bolt action sporter made up for the Bee. I have owned neither but hear that the Bee is much easier to load for.
