blasterjudd Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Ive recently been given an assortment of really old cardboard cased cartridges all in good condition. What should i do with them? There all live rounds can they be mounted in a frame is my thoughts? Anyone ever done this themselves? Theres a real mixture of makers carts from Boss, W J Jeffery, Eley, Winchester Remington and many other names i cannot recall. Are there any that i should look out for that are rare and in demand ? I would be keen to find out any advice as i really havent got a clue if there worth anything at all? Thankyou fellas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnFreeman1310 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 It should be fine to mount in a frame as long as they are for your self as there is no law saying the have to be stored in a ammo safe. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camojohn Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 I have been given an old box of shotgun cartridge, and wondered if they are safe to fire then. They are Called chubbs gamemaster, and manufacture red by Eley. They are size 32gm, number 7 with 65mm cardboard casing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me with a list and I will give my honest opinion on them, the worst thing you could do with them is mount them on a display board, it will devalue them completely. Ironmongers and some of the gunmakers will be the best ones wit RTO, crimps are not really worth much but usually too good to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
