A lady that I work with is in her 50s now. Her dad died 10 years ago and he was a hunter. Well.....This lady walks up to me today and asks me if I want some old shotgun shells and ammo. It has been in the truck of her car in an old briefcase for years. The briefcase is a mess, but...It has old boxes of .30-06 rounds, 12 gauge shells, .357 shells and a rifle and shotgun cleaning kit. All this stuff is old, Sears Roebuck is the brand of some of the ammo. The boxes look like they are from the 1960s. I removed all the ammo from the briefcase and I am giving that back to her. In fact the case is so old that inside the case are business cards that have the phone # listed as El 6-7852 kinda thing. When did the phone #s change to the 7 digits with 3 digit area codes?
Anyway what should I do with this ammo? I am not going to fire the 12 gauge shells out of any of my shotguns and the .30-06 rounds could be duds and I am not firing these out of my Ruger.
I have 4 boxes of .30-06 and a few boxes of 12 gauge and 2 or 3 boxes of .357 and some other loose rounds.
