antique ammo question


Bugler

Recommended Posts

I recently was given some ammo from an estate of a dear friend of mine.....anyone a cartridge collector that can help ID the year of mfg. on the 45-70 and approximate value , same question on the .45 acp shotshell box that contains .45 acp shotshell and is unopened?

 

There is also 62 rounds of factory .351 Winchester ammo not in boxes however, lastly about 40 some rounds of 38-40 casings....

 

Thanks everyone

Howdy,,

If you are selling this old ammunition you might consider making up a statement

that it is presented as antique and may or may not work properly.

It just seems like a way to get a lawsuit you dont need.

Protect yourself good luck.

Don't know how to fix the picture problem.....

 

The 45-70 ammo has been identified as mfg. for a two year period between 1878-1880.

The .45 acp shotshells were issued during WW2 to air crews as a survival cartridge.

The 38-40 casing are Starline.....

The 351 SLR Winchester ammo is a mix of WW and Remington

 

Thanks to all!! Especially Backstrap Bill for his research........
