Old? A classic perhaps!

This was stuff from the 30’s to work in a short chambered 16 ga. until I got my press set up to roll them the correct size.

I still pick up paper hulls. Next to Hoppes 9, it’s the best smell in shooting.

I used to have a brand new box of Remington 410’s that were from the late 30’s. Somehow the box got stuck in the bottom of my Dad’s old heavy canvas backpack for 30 years. When I found them again I flipped out. I wrapped the box with paper and stuck it in a Crown Royal pouch for another 25 years. I finally sold it to a collector for a very tidy sum.

I thought Hoppes #9 was a men's cologne. Huh. Learn something every day.

On the upside, I have very little powder residue behind the ear...
