I'm not too sure if this is the right place to post this, but i was wondering if anyone knows of a (cheap!) way to to collect cases of different calibers, with seated bullets in them (unprimed with no powder obviously) is there a store or something that sells such a thing? I imagine that i would cost allot more than I can justify spending to try and buy single cases and bullets (especially since I don't have the means to load the bullets in the first place!) hopefully I got my point across without too much rambling! and thanks for your help in advance!

I have been collecting for the past few years. People on forums, and gun shows and my friends gun shop. But I collect them loaded as well as dummy rounds. I'm starting to use http://www.ammo-one.com/ to get the ones no one has.


Here is all of what I have (and havent lost).

[mr_tw]

wow! thats impressive! I was thinking allot smaller scale than that, must have taken awhile to collect all those!

 

[Tang]

I just updated the picture. Had my wife list them all as I named them off.

 

[thegrandenigma]

Ah, but Tang, can you list them all reverse-alphabetically with your eyes closed in under 20 seconds hoping on one foot?



Edit: Seriously, do you have a list of what all of those are? Even just a text list, without saying which one was wich in the picture? (Hey, that could be a fun gme! Match thename of the cartridges to the picture!)

 

[broom_jm]

"Hoping" on one foot is dangerous...doesn't leave you a leg to stand on.

I've been thinking about collecting some cartridges, but I'd want to sort them by type and mount them on a nicely finished set of matching oak display boards. I've seen it done several different ways and found them very interesting conversation pieces. One board could be for the really old blackpowder rounds, another for rimmed magnums, one for semi-auto pistol cases, etc, etc. I think something along those lines, done well, could even be sold to certain gun types.

Stay tuned, Im typing it now. Broom, I am working on mounting boards. But Im going with groups of the Weatherbys, the .308 based, 30-06 based, belted mags, etc etc.

 

[Tang]

Edit above, to add list. Mr TW, sorry if I hijacked your thread.

 

[broom_jm]

That's a pretty cool way to display them but makes it difficult to label them for identification. I'm not planning on a really extensive collection, so I can mount them on labeled boards and hang them up.

 

[mr_tw]

no worries Tang, tis neat too see everyones collections though! I wasn't hoping to have near that big of a collection, just 30 or 40 of the mainstream cartridges and some of the not so common big Magnums!

 

[mr_tw]

something like this: http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/t...-5590-11df-9198-0026b958ace7&_requestid=96243
except without all the shotgun shells lol (I know the actual item is just the case, but the collection size is about what I was thinking)

I've been thinking about collecting some cartridges, but I'd want to sort them by type and mount them on a nicely finished set of matching oak display boards.

Nice looking wood, oak, but not what you want to use around cartridges of brass with lead and copper bullets. Chemicals in the oak will destroy your cartridges, a lesson learned the hard way by to many. Plastic display boards are preferred by collectors.
