Hello everyone, i'm going to be getting a shotgun and my dad has a whole metal box full of 12 gauge shotgun shells. The problem: i'm not sure how old they are, can someone tell me from the pictures if they look "usable"? Thank you.
Thanks for replying. I"m wondering something though.....on the red bullets some are labeled "light shot" and some are labeled "heavy shot" Should i use the light shot on dove and the heavy shot on things like grouse and ducks? Thanks
These shells should work fine for doves and maybe grouse. However, I'm pretty sure they are not steel, so you don't want them anywhere near you if you are hunting waterfowl. Your local conservation officer would give you a hefty fine. I think its like $25/shell in Minnesota.
It looks like those shells may be reloads! That's ok they should work fine for grouse,wood****,doves. Also use them at gun clubs to shoot skeet or sporting clays to get ready for hunting season. Remember in Wisconsin you must use steel for doves on DNR managed lands. Small game licenses are around $15.00 in Wisconsin.
Old Ammunition?
