Sisco Posted February 6, 2014 Report Posted February 6, 2014 What do I do when it's -13 F out and I am Jonesing to get out to the range? I get on my headlamp and dig out the far corners of my gun safe to see what I find. So far this morning: Some 35 year old 30-06 reloads. A box of failed super heavy bullet 45 ACP loads (300 gr). Failed because at 10 yards with Unique powder they had the trajectory of an underhand thrown softball. Some 40 year old .357 JSP factory loads, Some Speer 9mm JSP reloads that actually were pretty good 35 years ago. And a bunch of partial boxes I inherited from my father 20 years ago. When the snow melts I think I will have a shoot at the range just to use this stuff up. Any body else ever do this with their safe? What did you find?
EasyEJL Posted February 6, 2014 Report Posted February 6, 2014 Ha! I had wondered about 300gr 45 ACP loads, partially for use with a silencer. I guess I'll skip that
Dane Armory Posted February 6, 2014 Report Posted February 6, 2014 1979 was a good year ! + 1 Girl fast pitch ??? Find any gold in there the going rate was about $275 an ounce. Not a bad day !
Sisco Posted February 6, 2014 Author Report Posted February 6, 2014 Oh, and a 5 rd box of J.C. Higgins 20 gauge rifled slugs with 4 left in it. Price on box: 97 cents. Dates from the early 1960's. Wonder if there are any collectors out there?

Rsquared Posted February 6, 2014 Report Posted February 6, 2014 I was cleaning out one of my gun boxes once and thought I found Jimmy Hoffa. (ba dum dum) No ancient ammo from yesteryear. But I did turn around and found this. <lmao>
shepp Posted February 7, 2014 Report Posted February 7, 2014 poop I don't even need the snow to melt just waiting for a +25* day to shoot gonna feel like a heat wave I tell you what!
Tripledeuce Posted February 7, 2014 Report Posted February 7, 2014 Got so bad, today the wife and I took a bunch of .22's to the indoor range. Even fired a few .45's and some 44 specials. All in all, not a bad day. Terry

Now when you say snow sled do you mean "snow machine" or as us in the Midwest call snow mobiles?? I asked because I was in Montana once and he kept saying snow machine, I though he was talking about the device ski hills use to make snow but he meant snow mobile I didn't know wtf he was talking about for a few min lol
