...8" Naval HE projectile. (yes, it's empty, and heavy)
...12 ga. "Dragon's Breath". Same as Blckhrn's flamethrower rounds.
...12 ga. handloads with 1 1/4 oz of #12 shot. On a flock of starlings, it rains birds.0 -

8x50R Lebel, 8x50R Siamese, 8x50R Austrian, 8x56R Austrian, 8x56R Kropatchnik, 7.92x57 Mauser, 7.92x57JR Mauser (as identified by another collector)0 -

Here you go... 


I am still looking for eight more of these to fill the box.
edit... just in case some of you do not recogize them, they are Winchester (W.R.A.Co.) 50-95 W.C.F. shotshell cartridges manufactured circa 1890. They were made specifically for the Model 1885 Single Shot rifle, and are worth about $50 per cartridge[:0].0 -
30-06 ammo marked F A (19)18 . WW1 ammo? 0 -
For some reason, (increadibly cheap price I guess) I have stocked up on 8MM Mauser milsurp corrosive ammo. Even bought a Remington model 700 to shoot it in.
Man, am I a sucker for a perceived bargain.
Hey, don't tempt me by offering me a bargain. I mean, I do have.......some...will power when buying guns and ammo.0 -
We are a bunch of freaks aren't we!
I just got some 32 rimfire for the old derringer...the box is super old also. I think I remember it has 1920 on it.0 -
Yup. I've got a box of 25ACP on hand.
I love what Jeff Cooper said about it, so I can't imagine owning a gun in that caliber.
I got the box from a friend. I'll probably keep it until I can trade it for something.0 -

22 LR Shotshell
Comes in handy for shooting mice during the winter when they manage to come inside due to global warming.

The two most unusual rounds I have on hand are some 12 gauge shotshells with paper hulls with a J.C. Higgins headstamp and some Russian 3"zinc plated steel case .410 slugs.
I do have some Herters .401 Power Mag cases that were mixed in with some .41 mag stuff I bought at the gun show.
