Margarita Marie Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Was loading up some ammo for our next monthly shoot and ran across this. This piece of brass is 52 years older than the Buckerette Buffalo Kay that is going to shoot it!!! I'm thinking I need to pay a little closer attention PRIOR to loading them....I am sure if it could talk, there could be some stories.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Margarita Marie Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 Yeah, I look at the case mouth and then also watch for those pieces that have been stepped on beyound what seems possible to straighten out. I was checking headstamps as I was looking for high primers and just happened to notice the date. No, the granddaughter is 11. She started competing in SASS when she was 10. I can do the math pretty easy since I was born in '57 and that makes me 63. Take 11 away from that and it leaves you with 52. I'm not an accountant but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express recently!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Smokepole #29248L Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Brass is like a good Woman. If taken care of and not abused, they both get better with age.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
