Cleaning out the cabinets last week.......

and low and behold?..


These have to be 10+ years old. I guess I was ageing them like fine wine.
They still work, was at the range yesterday, here is the 100 yard 3 shot group form my SRH .454. My 629 preformed just a well pushing 240gr a-frames, now I need to contemplate which one to use come deer season this fall.
There was no price tag on them, I bet they were under $20 a box back then.

SCORE!

Nice surprise! I still have a box and a half of those and a box and a half of the 300 gr .458 (45-70) Partitions. I put them up there with silver and gold! I also ration my 7mm and .308 old style Ballistic Tips that expand down to 1600fps.

I have three boxes of .454 Casull Winchester Supreme Partition Gold loaded with that bullet. They are being saved for something special.

Such as??? Ya got something planned already??

good stuff

Curly, nice find. lol "back then".

Good luck on your hunting season!

My 2008 MIDWAYUSA catalogue list price is $47.59 per box
of F I F T Y

The price tag on my last two boxes is $33.95. I bought them around 2007. That's a 40% increase on my investment in one year! So at 40% compound interest over the 9 years since I bought them a box should be worth $701 today. Buy my full box and I'll throw in the half full box for free. What a deal!

And I thought Barnes bullets were expensive!

Good find. Ain't it funny how we find stuff we forgot we had ?

Its always a nice surprise! The other night I found a box of new 45-70 Starline brass I don't even remember ordering. The funny thing is earlier that same day I was thinking I should order some .45-70 Starline brass. I was almost in disbelief when I was looking at the box. I must be getting old!

l bought a grab bag of 44/45 cal bullets 4-5 years ago off
AA or Gunbroker several years ago. 0ne item in the bid were
3 boxes of Nosler Partition HG 250gr 44cal. Two boxes were
marked $61.25

Nice find. We just moved and I broke out the reloading gear to load for my 44magnum and lost all but 50 pieces of brass.
