Cartridge Collection

[ScouT6a]

I enjoy the challenge of identification of unknown rounds that are going into the collection.

I do have several boxes of .256 Winchester Magnum if someone wants to add a round to their collection. Several wildcats as well.

am i the only one that does a board for diffrent brands? ive done a remington, winchester, and peters 20+ yrs ago but havent done much with them since. i bought empty boards made by collectem at a gun show 25 yrs ago but i should have wired them on and not used elastic string because that didnt last too long.

I think the Mods need to make a sticky in the classifieds
It'd be cool for everyone to post up their extra cartridges for sale or trade! As You previously mentioned

That seems like a good idea. Could you post some pictures? I Could use some display ideas.

Missing .351 and .401 on those collections.

 

[scoutsniper]

not as many as the OP but I like to think a simple decent collection

.22LR
9MM
.45ACP
.223/5.56
.308/7.62x51
7.62x39
7mm Rem Mag (bought on a urge. fun round but thinking of changing to 30-06)
12 gauge
want to get back into a magnum round used to shoot .357 but maybe .44mag this time!

I try to stock a few thousands rounds of each. guess it helps I'm not buying 100 different calibers! lol

Full box of .30 Pedarson.

here are the collectem cartridge boards i have. now that i dug them out i think i will re mount the bullets with some brass wire and maybe even build some frames for them.

^^^^^^^^^^^
That is really cool. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Definitely old school and just the boards probably have some serious collector value.

Please update us when you get the cartridges mounted.

Page 56. Wow they were sold out of Coloma Michigan. That entire magazine is really interesting.

I am still drooling over the surplus rifle prices in 1960. 19.95 for a Lee Enfield?

Nice additions to your collection! I really need to make a list of what I have. Getting difficult to recall from memory.

Theboss930,
Very cool additions to the collection! Nice.
Any chance you picked up doubles on any of those rounds?

Thanks to you! And yeah, I need to label my cartridges as well. I have a few without head stamps that are a bit difficult to identify.

I found the Elmer Keith editorial fascinating.
