6.5-300 Weatherby Mag ammo?

Does anyone have any idea where I can get my hands on some ammo for the above? I cannot find it anywhere online, I bought a rifle to take on an elk hunt in Montana and now I'm scared I won't have any ammo to shoot out of it like an idiot Also willing to buy a few boxes off anyone who wants to sell, prepared to pay a premium for my stupidity too

Natchez Bowies had a few boxes last week. $100+ each

I got 2 boxes from Sportsman's Warehouse a while back but had to ask them. It was in the back

I’m going to Simmons in Bastrop this afternoon, I’ll check there too.

Ill be honest, Ive found that if your going to shoot these exotic(ish) calibers it does wonders to reload your own. Not only do you save money if you do much shooting at all but much more choices for bullets to fit whatever role you need. And the cherry on top is to fine tune for each weapon.

Pendelton ammunition has some in stock

I picked up custom 257 WBY from an outfit in Montana. Not recalling the name right now.

Sounds like you've got some good leads so far. I'll also suggest Steve's Outdoors in Magnolia, AR. Ph # 870-234-227. I won't be surprised if he has it, but it'll be expensive if he does. Save all your brass and strongly consider handloading at a later date (once you can find primers ). The current times are very frustrating for ALL handloaders. I've been looking for Reloder 17 gun powder for nearly 11 mos, but to no avail. Then 2 days ago I got an email notification at work about 1030 AM. My work filter blocks "gun sites" and I didn't have time to leave the grounds until about 330 PM at which time it was ALL GONE Good luck w/ your ammo. I'd be sure and use a controlled expansion and stout bullet like a Partition, Barnex TTSX, Scirocco, maybe Accubond or others. No Ballistic Tips.

Call Jim's Firearms in Baton Rouge. They will possibly have some. They usually have ammo in the back but you have to ask.
I walked into the Wal-Mart in McComb MS two Saturdays ago and they had a case of 308 Federal 150 grains and 300 Win Mag 150 grains on the shelf they had just put out. Limit 3 boxes of each. I bought 3 each. I felt like I hit the lottery at .19.99 for the 308 and 23.99 for the 300's

As others have mentioned, if you get any ammo, be sure to retrieve and save all the brass, it’s worth about $2.00 a round for empty hulls.
Wildcat calibers are often harder to get than standard calibers but even more so during worldwide shortages like currently being experienced. If you aren’t real interested in getting into reloading, you might consider asking friends, co-workers, hunting club buddies if any of them reload and if so, would they be interested in loading for you for a reasonable charge.
Primers of any kind are almost impossible to get right now but someone already loading for a large rifle caliber may be willing to load you a box or two using their primers.

Might be easier to just buy a 300 Win

Bowie's in Natchez had it. Also I get most of my reload hardware there. Bought the rock chuker there too.
I got around 800.00 in my reloading setup including three different calibers of dies. I have everything but the tumbler. It is a very rewarding hobby and plenty of time at night to hone your skills. That 6.5-300 will be a booger when shooting 3 ladders at the range, better get a good lead sled and pad.

I would not buy a WBY caliber if I didn't reload, the savings in reloading will far outweight $5.00 per round.
That's why my uncle started reloading, found a guy unloading his stuff and picked up every WBY die set Pre-1985.
