I always hunt with Winchester ammo. IMHO it is the best ammo. I have never had a misfire or hang fire with Winchester ammo. I may occassionally pick up another brand, if it is on sale, but only to plink with.

I believe that they are staying in the US. Just moving to a state with cheaper labor. They are looking at Mississippi.
Tomster, I'll see what I can find out. I don't run the rifle presses very often. My department makes the bullet itself, not the loaded round.
We do load some Nosler bullets, and Hornady too.

I shoot mostly reloads with Sierra. Nosler and Barnes bullets with some Hornady thrown in. When I do buy factory loads I always look first for the old WW silver tips If I can't find them I shoot Federal Premium with Nosler Partitions.
