Took the slug barrel from my Remington 870 in to the gunsmith the other day to replace a broken screw on the rear sight.....not really a big deal. But while there, I found he had a whole bunch of Linotype for sale, as well as a box of Remington 30 Luger ammo (which hasn't been made in QUITE a while).
So, I bought the box of ammo ($21....current production Winchester ammo is going for $60+/box of 50 around here!
), bought some of the linotype (wish I could have bought it all
) and looked over the rest of the stuff he had on the shelf. In addition to some other odd ball calibers, he had a box of Winchester 35 Remington 200 grain
silvertip ammo (I like the old Silvertip ammo) and about 1000 CCI *57 primers (haven't seen those since the late 70's).
To paraphrase Forrest: Going to the gunsmith's is like a box of chocolates; you never know what your going to find!
