;) Yard sale score.

Stopped to look at a BBQ and found a box of mixed ammo and loading gear.

that's sweet!

 

[Abel]

When you say that you stopped to look at a BBQ, do you mean a grill?

 

[Arkansas Paul]

What loading gear did you find?
I've not had a lot of luck at yard sales personally. Once I picked up a set of new Hornady dies for .44 mag/.44 special for $8.00. I don't even own a .44 but figured I could use it as trade bait for that cheap.
The few times I've actually found guns, I was either broke, or they wanted new prices for them. Would love to come upon someone trying to get rid of loading gear cheap.

 

[MJ]

LOL!

Well it looks like 2,900 .311" Sierra's in three flavores 150g Game Kings 174g Match kings and 180g soft points. 120 rounds of 7.5 Swiss GP11 and 200 Lapua 7.62X53R cases and a few odds-n-ends in this box. I'm going back to dig in some more boxes after lunch.

 

[Arkansas Paul]

Nice yardsale find for sure. Even if you don't shoot that caliber, you have cheap trade bait.

 

[jonnyc]

That is a serious SCORE box, everything I need!

 

[sixgunner455]

Wow! That's quite a box.

Maybe I need to start scouring yard sales ...

 

[Shadow 7D]

I am very Jealous of you, just WOW.

Son-in-law had a helluva find few weeks ago at a YS. He was looking at a couple large boxes of loading equipment, jacketed bullets, &c and found a set of dies he needed. Asked the guy how much and was told 20 bucks for the two boxes.

Most everything proved to be NIB and when he priced it out was over $900.00 worth of goodies.

Yeah, I've recently found out I need to scout estate sales. I was on a test drive one day last week and just out of curiosity stopped in to one. Saw some decent deals but nothing I needed. When I figured out who was in charge I asked if there were any firearms. "Just missed it", she says" sold his Winchester 30 30 about an hour ago. He bought it last year and only got to go deer hunting the one time." How much? $150. :banghead:

 

[351 WINCHESTER]

Several years ago I bought a new "Winchester" 94 at wallyworld for $125. plus tax. I didn't need it so I gave it to the neighbors kid.

 

[MJ]

Just hit a little patch of good luck.



I haven't ben able to afford Sierra's in a long time. One or two boxes at most now I can bust out my Enfield and Mosin shooting sticks.

 

[minutemen1776]

What? No BBQ guns?
