Another box of old cartridges

This is a discussion on Another box of old cartridges within the Non-XD Handguns forums, part of the Other Handgun Talk category; Winchester 45-60 cartridges. Another find from my dad's collection. I think he got these with an antique Win. 1876 lever action....

Winchester 45-60 cartridges. Another find from my dad's collection. I think he got these with an antique Win. 1876 lever action.

not sure of the point of saving the emptys, they don't look reloadable. but then with enough work, anything (even a 22lr) ir reloadable.

No plans to reload. These were in the box when I found it. My dad was pretty fastidious about picking up brass and cleaning up at the bench, so I suspect he fired a few shots to test the gun, and put the brass back in the box.

who cares if it can be reloaded or not.. .It's cool that you have something that old. I would keep the empties just for old time sake. I would keep everthing you find just for history sake.
