No one was having a shot at you. Camel simply quoted you to quote 7mm as the answer to what cal.
I thought about doing the same but thought my efforts would be lost and probably taken the wrong way

Has anyone got any 30cal hunting pills in 150-165gr weight they'd be willing to sell or trade for 10 of? Also after some 270 cal pills in 130gr and 25cal in 100 or 110gr.

I have 130gr Nosler Partitions and 140gr SST (270), 165gr Speer Hotcors, 180gr Woodleighs and 168gr Speer Match (30cal) and 87gr Speer Hotcors in 25cal.

Thanks guys.
