Buy a gun or sell the ammo?

[adamsredlines]

Buy ammo, find deal on gun, enjoy having neat stuff that even the AR guys geek out over at the range. Funny how that works....

I have two 375 H&H rifles that I feed and one 300 H&H ....

Those calibers? Unless you're planning an African safari, sell them.

I've got a bunch of random exotic ammo that I've managed to acquire but have nothing to shoot them. This include 375 Win, 300H&H, 458 Lott and maybe others. I keep having this debate --- should I buy a gun for the ammo, or just put it on the block. I mean, they all seem like fun calibers, but they are all expensive calibers.

I'm in a similar boat. I've got a bunch of 204 Ruger that I didn't sell with the rifle at the time. Do I buy another rifle or sell the ammo.

I say sale them and buy a 50. Those round are already a thumper. Go big or go home.

Sir I like your way of thinking.

Really my dream gun is a mag fed Anzio Ironworks 20mm but I don't know that I'm quite ready to drop 14k plus 20-30 bucks a round on that quite yet.

@Rez Exelon this one has been marked down heavily. Depending on how much 375win and 458 Lott you have laying around this could be a real steal.

Dang....after day one of voting we're still a dead even split. This is not helping much

If you have ammo for something you really want, keep it for when you find the gun to match. Or can afford to build the gun you want. I'm buying and building for .32 Colt, both long & short cartridges, and working on getting my shop together so I can make CF breech blocks for a couple of Stevens boys rifles to use it. Built a frankenfield 1903a3. National Ordinance action, mil-spec or mil-surp everything else. Got a hundred rounds of .308 ammo sitting here IF I ever manage to acquire a rifle to shoot them. Steel-cased, so not really sure I want to shoot it in something I love anyway. Saving some .300 WSM brass for one of my younger brothers who shoots it, otherwise that would be gone. Everything else I have is for something I want or already shoot.
