I was digging around in my girlfriends parents garage looking for some plywood, when I found an old bucket.
Upon closer inspection, this bucket contained 1100 rounds of .22lr ammo!
1000 of it is Remington 40 grain, and another 100 is Winchester 40 grain.
My question; is it safe to use?
The ammo itself looks fine. It was stored in plastic containers, which do look pretty old. I opened the plastic and the ammo looks brand new, not a spec of dirt to be found anywhere. Is it safe to fire out of my .22? I have a Marlin model 60. It's not picky about ammo, I've tried a few kinds and it shoots basically anything. If you need pictures, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
