    I didn't score like that, but I did get a great deal on 50 round boxes of 40 cal Federal Hydrashocks, 10$ each. He had 25 boxes and I bought em all.

    I guess a LEA was going to different duty ammo and they gave that stuff to him and he just wanted to get rid of it.

    The smart, learn from their own mistakes.
    The others, well......they just never learn.

        Very cool story.

        We should start some poker games where we use ammo as chips.

My buddy and I recently went shooting and he shot corrosive yugo ammo through his Mosin and figured he could just piss in the barrel and call it a day. Several days later the bolt was rusted shut but I guess the fouling wasnt TOO bad.

            Finally a happy ending to an otherwise bleak story. Good for him.

              That's gotta be around $1k worth of ammo (at least). Your friend is very, very lucky.

                He screwed up...........he should have said: " I shoot 40S&W, 45 ACP, 9mm, 44 Mag, 357Mag, 223, 12g, 22LR, 22WMR, 7.62x39, 308, 50BMG..............mostly!"

                            I hope at least one of those casings lands down his shirt and causes him ild discomfort.
