Not really sure what forum to post this in. But I was hoping someone might be able to estimate the age of this ammo based on the packaging. I purchased 3 boxes of it since .30-30 has been hard to come by for a while. Also some of the rounds are a little corroded with green spots. They clean up easily with a little 000 steel wool which leaves the casings smooth and not pitted at all. Just some dark spots where the corrosion was. Should I be worried to fire these and use them in the field?

I don't see any pictures. But any ammo with very little corrosion I would shoot with out worry.

Darn. No matter what I do I cannot get the picture to upload. They're white boxes marked Western and Super X in red letter. .30-30 Win 170 grain Power Points if it helps.

Up load the pictures to photo bucket then use the link to share photo (img) from the menu on the right. and paste it here.

Shoot em after you clean them up like you mentioned!

Toss em in yer tumbler for a few hours and you should be good to go.
