Page 4 and counting..........It's been hashed, mashed, mulled and "Heckled". and Jimmi don't eat the rat poison that would probably not be good for you, Be sure you keep that out of the reach of those kids too.

I believe this has been a good thread!

I have found live rounds several times while metal detecting. This is no problem to me, I've reloaded for over 30 years.

If you do find a round, don't leave it around for the kids to play with. If you know a reloader give it to them. You can also call a gun shop and ask for someone who reloads.

Be safe!

Don't worry I'm gonna show it to my Dad. He's a Vietnam war veteran , an avid hunter since boyhood, a reloader, and safety nut. Wether it's A safety hazard or not , considering its size ... If it still has powder he wont give me a choice , he'll take it.
In the meantime back in the trunk it goes. I have no plans on shooting it ( why would I ever dream of doing that ?. Last time I checked all the mammoths were extinct) and I promise not to take a Phillips head and a mallet to it. Lol. Thanks everybody!!

I'm curious what your dad said.after all he would have it in his hand and all anyone else can do is surmise from a photo.Your dad has your interest at heart and would surely give you the best advice.

Haven't seen him yet to show him.

But, where is your sense of adventure!?

When I was a kid, I would put shotgun shells(live) on the end of my bb gun and hold it above my head and pull the trigger!
I can tell you for a fact.. then they will go off!

Many people like to give advice and don't have a clue what they're telling. If I tell ya something.. you can take it to the bank!

oh.. I already drink... some.

.....not sure about all of that!

What are you "not so sure" about?
You know old Wayne wouldn't tell ya wrong!

Wait? Who was that to? Or wAs it about the bullet to gut story?

 

[pippinwhitepaws]

ok..here we go again...
the round will weigh 5 to 6 ounces...put it on a scale...if it is heavy, it is filled with lead.

or, being the calvin type personality I am...put the round on a fire, take the pets an children on a run down the block...if you hear a noise..it was live...

 

[borlamm1]
