Quick little eye-opener I thought I'd share. I spend a lot of time at the range picking up brass, and usually talk to other people who do so. I find a lot of people shoot loaded ammunition they find on the ground. I've done it before, don't really like to. I usually pick them up and pull them apart, use what I can where I can. I picked up some loaded Remington Gun Club shells on the ground the other day, brought them home and cut them apart to dump the shot into my lead stash. They turned out to be Lyman slugs someone had hand loaded and star crimped. Probably only would have hurt my pride if I would have tried to shoot clays with them, but there are roads just a couple hundred yards beyond the shotgun range, so who knows? I guess you can never be too careful when it comes to unknown ammunition. Anyone have similar stories?
