We all seem lose things when we move. There have always been things I find years later that I thought I had lost for good. Not that we move that often, we don't. The last place we lived we were there for 20 years. And before that, 12 years.
The treasure I found this time was actually 2 boxes stuffed way back in the corner of a large closet. I was looking for something else when I ran across two longer, narrow boxes standing on end. Kinda heavy, too. I dug all the stuff out and away from these two to see what they were and I found myself staring at the bottom of them. I turned the first one around and it was marked "Shop - Powder & Primers" . Really? Hmmm... Opened it and sure enough, 1 - 8lb jug of IMR 4451, 1 - 8lb jug of IMR4166, 3k Winchester LR primers. So that's where that stuff went! (Last month before getting laid off I replaced the 2 8lb jugs!!!)
Oh, the other box? (Really heavy for size!) A case of .22LR SK Rifle Match less 1 brick! I knew I hadn't lost that but it had been so long since I had seen it I was beginning to think just maybe one of the movers had found a place for it in his personal vehicle....
All is well now, except for the box of miscellaneous goodies that has, among other things, all my slings and the best of my 3 tripods in it..
