Mystery ammo

[falconew]

Got this from another site. It’s a true mystery what you order. Lol

22 Long Rifle Mystery Box - Detroit Ammo Co.

We all love a good mystery. Many of us can’t resist the “what’s in the box” feeling anytime we get a package in the mail.

Once, on a long flight, I asked the flight attendant what was for dinner.

She responded, “Mystery meat”. 🥳

I think thats pretty darn cool. I wish over the years I had been collecting the various ammo boxes I've used.

Thanks for posting that! I know some folks will think I'm nuts but that's just my cup of tea. Just ordered 3000 rounds.

If my "fun" cash hadn't just been depleted. I'd be right there with you.

That's cool as hell!

Will do!

Well, for me it was the "Western" special I guess! LOL!

Western "regular"

Western Super-X

Western Super Match

Western Super Match Mark II

Western Super Match Mark III

Western Super Match Mark IV


All seemed to be stored well as far as the condition of the ammo. I fired 14 rounds from my lever action Henry and 10 rounds from my M&P .22 Compact of the "regular" Western. All shot fine and sounded appropriate. Sounded better than a brick of modern Remington turds.

They did ship from California.

Two of the 50 round boxes fell apart picking them up. Those are ones that I shot the rounds from.

Some of them are sealed/individually wrapped boxes in some older kind of plastic. Reminds me a lot of the cellophane on cigarette packs.


I'm pretty pleased! May do it again.

Wonder what the story is on such a quantity of vintage ammo for sale?

 

[wrgjr1966]

[wrgjr1966]

For me it was a good mix!
