I am sorry if this has been addressed before (my search-fu is weak tonight) but what do you guys do when you want to exit a less-than-common caliber?
I am thinking about getting out of .260 Rem and .450 Marlin (I am down to one firearm in each) and have a significant amount of ammo that I am not certain how to handle. I expect to take a loss on the firearms and ammo, but I am hoping to find a way to recoup 60-70% on the ammo, if possible, as I may have as much tied up in ammo as in the firearms themselves.
Do you bundle the ammo with the firearm (although it drives up the price) or just keep the firearm until the ammo sells separately? Or sell them independently? (Which really makes me cringe as I routinely find myself with various boxes of orphaned ammo and would hate to be sitting on hundreds of rounds with no way to enjoy them.)
I have thought about just keeping them but, since I do not get to shoot them often enough, I think I would rather allocate the space to other projects.
What say you ?
