Dan,

Obviously you "Circled your Wagon" quicker than most folks! As for old .22 ammo; about 10 years ago a neighbor gave me her deceased dad's ammo stash. She was paying me for plowing her gardens and bushogging her pasture.

In the footlocker was a brick of Winchester long rifle ammo and every one of the 10 boxes has stamped inside an end flap. "USMC May 1941." Another brick was the old green Remington dated 1941. Besides the bricks of ammo mentioned were a few loose boxes of .22 ammo; shorts, longs and long rifles. ALL fired reliably on the range.

Your 20MM can will out live us both. Be well.

Adam

Didn't circle any wagon...this is just part of the stuff I bought when buddy closed gun shop...15-16 years ago...reloading stuff/ammo...both kids and myself were shooting weekly....just way over estimated how much I bought! Oh well, it'll keep in the cans.....also, in the years of auto salvage, a LOT of stuff came out of cars!

George let me have all this stuff at cost.....plus. I think he threw a lot of stuff in!
