Rookie Cartridge Collector

[lightman]

I've been a Hunter and shooter all of my life. Over the years I have picked up the odd cartridge or cartridge case. I built this shelf to display them. Since retirement, I've been adding to it.

I think you can drop the rookie part now. I didn't even know that that many calibers existed. Pretty impressive collection there. Mighty fine.

Light, I noticed an interesting set of wings in there, yours ? ( command Pilot ) I bet that you don't have a internal primed 45 70 cartride in there .They are similar to an oversized .22 cartridge. The main reason for the Custer fiasco. Incidentally do you have a 50 70 in here ?

Actually that is a nice colection.

Thanks guys! The wings were sent to me by the guy that donated the two 20mm cases. He even documented where they were fired and in what type of gun. And no, I don't have either of those 2 cases.

I have a few 30mm dummy rounds (filled with sand to simulate weight) that fed the A10 Warthog's cannon. My old man helped engineer the loaders that would load the belts and feed them into the airplane. Crazy to watch the test runs, esp when there was a jam!
