Just dug some more finds out of my stash, the first one I call "the brass forest" there are 45-70's, 40-60's, 25-30's, .58 rimfires, .58 black powder transitionals with balloon primers, a .22 short, a .32 rimfire, some of these look like mini-howitzer shells ;D. I had some drops that were center fires that I removed the lead and poured black powder out into a metal plate (tonight) and took outside and tossed a match in.....WHOOOOOOSH! It was still very viable. The other pics are what they say at bottom of pics........Enjoy..........NGE
