When I was cleaning out the garage, I discovered some old 30-30 ammo that belonged to my grandfather. It was stored under less than ideal condition for at least 75 years.

I was afraid to use it, so I salvaged the brass & bullets. Though I didn’t use the powder or primers, I tested them & they seemed fine.

The velocity would have been decreased, but other than that they would have worked fine.
