Oh I have a LONG list. Really that is the majority of what I shoot. Some of the companies will do, or did before covid was make a run of "odd ball" once a decade or so. I have some Norma 6.5 Carcano brass, I am really careful on that stuff.

I don't load any of my old cartridges even close to warm, but some of that stuff has 7 loads on it and it is still going well.

Got most of one box
Fond memories of shooting with my grandpa in his Model 92, oct bbl
My cousin got the rifle..........I wound up with a box of shells :ROFLMAO:

He also had a 30-40 Krag, remember him telling of cleaning the cosmoline out of it when he bought it.

We used to sit in his shop and shoot at a culvert under a road at the time seemed like a looooong ways off.
It was satisfying to hear the "ping" after a bit of a wait.
My first long range shooting experience :D

Those are the best kind of memories. The ones we didn't know we were making when we did them.

Have a box and a half off these and my uncles model 92 saddle ring carbine in my safe. Killed my first deer with that rifle and my aunt gave the rifle to me when my uncle passed.
 
I put this in the bear spray thread, but for those who don't follow that one, cool story on how this did actually work without the spray being manually deployed.



Happened last week Great Teton - vet attacked by momma grizzly didn't have a chance to deploy spray, but had it in his hand as he protected his rear neck- she bit into it and retreated after tearing into him!


EEK, thanks for the warning because I'll be there the last week of this month.
