Default Christmas 2012 Giveaway #2 ***WINNER***

For our reloading TFF members.. I would like to put a 500 round pack of 168 gr Sierra Matchking .308" projectiles.

I would like to extend a special thanks to member r.nevels for his immense generosity. I purchased a few thousand of these projectiles from him for storage and he made sure I got what I paid for and then some. It is only fit to extend his generosity to the members of this forum for a nice Christmas giveaway donation made in his honor. Many Thanks Richard.

Rules: Pretty much the same as the other Christmas giveaway thread.

Must have a post count of 100.

Must have and reload for a .30 cal that utilizes .308" dia. projectiles

Members making a donation to TFF will have two chances in the drawing.

You will have until the end of Dec to increase your post count so new members will have a chance in the drawing.

Good luck to everyone who enters the drawing.

Pictures to follow.

Congrats GDMoody!.. PM me your mailbox!

Great giveaway Josh. I load for my daughter's 30-06 and my 308 but only about 25 rounds per year, I load more for my 222 and 22-250 than anything so I will wish the other members the best of luck.

this would go great with the RAR I'm buying myself for Christmas. .30-06 of course. I've got the dies and plenty of brass and powder

I should mention, Sierra match King is one of my favorites
