Know how you get rid of something think you will never need it?

I know, I understand...if it's in good shape then it's in good shape. As long as I've suggested you look at it then I feel better. Likely be fine...let us know.

I might stop by and visit him today and ask for a couple of cans to checkout. I need to spot by and see how he's doing anyhow os it give me an excuse. Pictures to follow...

I went to pick up two Remington Model 12 .22 rifles and the Yugo SKS today, found three Mausers but more on those later.

On my way home, I stopped by my friend's house and he gave me a couple can of the NORMA 203 out of the case and gave me Norma Load Data pamphlet -- sadly no load data for the 7.62x39; So I guess i'll have to figure that one out for myself. Anyhow, as far as the can go, the are clean.. not even a bit of discoloration on them.

not even a bit of discoloration on them.

You got that right, guess they're ok from the can condition.

ou got that right, guess they're ok from the can condition.

The case was just opened about a week ago form what he told me. He has way more then I thought he did. A LOT MORE... and a bunch of Remington 9 1/2 Large Rifle primers.

I'm going to load-up five minimum load 270Win and see what the powder does. Wish I had a 7.62X39 load but until I know what the powder does I'm not going to work up a load for it.

I doubt you'll find one. I wouldn't without a pressure gun to work up loads... Those Remington primers should be good to go.

I do my best to hang on to things that are knowledge based, parts usable etc. I do my best to proceed with discretion when deciding to reduce clutter but it usually does bite me in the rear

Over the years I've picked up one or tins of Nobels Rifle and Pistol powders, and glad I kept the book they issued for them.
