Digging deep into the stash

[nucular]

Getting into the old stuff for this weekend's fun. I can't remember for sure when I even bought this. Maybe the late 80s to early 90s? What's the oldest ammo in your stash?

 

[Mgderf]

I have a bunch of 1970's production .30-06.

 

[wcd]

Inherited some boxes of Remington Clean bore from who knows when perhaps late 60’s

I've seen "new, old stock" older than that.

A few years back, when I was much heavier into matches, training and practice, it was rare for my ammo to be a week old.

30 Carbine from the 90’s.

 

[Butter.Actual]

I believe I have some early 50’s 30 carbine…. Somewhere

I have a bunch of this old German 8x56mmR ammo from 1938 and 1939.

Have some pretty old Mosin food as well but don't want to dig through spam cans to find it.

I ended up with a box of 1970s 9mm Makarov today. Steel case, sealed. Stuff looks great. Probably keep it for collecting purposes.

There's still some loose peters (50s?) shotgun shells far in the back that I've been meaning to shoot. Curious how they do.

I've got 8mm Mauser ammo from the 1930's. Still goes bang!

 

[Expat]

Not counting milsurp ammo, that I bought old, I definitely have stuff I bought in the early 80’s. I think I have some shotgun shells of Dad, so maybe 60’s…

One box of Shelbyville made Super-Vel 9mm, tried to sell it during last panic, nobody wanted it, it now lives in the back of the safe, where it will stay till hell freezes over, or the Russians invade.

Now that is old.

45 ACP and 30-06 from The Great War.

Good ole days

 

[Bill2905]

Not ammo but I have a brick of old Winchester white box SRP from the mid 90's. I got into them last year before primers started returning to the market and they still go bang just fine.

 

[BankShot]

Mine is some Chinese 9mm and Federal AE 22lr. Both are from 1991.

 

[vtnewbie]

.25 Stevens rimfire and .32 S&W short, both from the 1930s. Occasionally I'll fire a round or 2 of the .32 ammo through an old break-top revolver, but the .25 rimfire is off limits...
