Have only picked up a few vintage ammo boxes so far. I think I need to be careful about it though. I can already see myself finding a good deal on a box of ammo, and it costing me a lot of money to buy the gun to match it.
Here’s a box of .405 I just snagged. It was absolutely paramount that I own it, to pair with my Miroku 1895. Hopefully I can convince myself of that long enough to not overpay for an original .405. 
 
  

It is a disease… I have five different Winchester factory boxes of 405 WCF ammo to go with my Single Shot high-wall rifle in that cartridge (the center rifle in my signature picture).

IF you have an obviously nice box of ORIGINAL .405 ammo, you then NEED an ORIGINAL RIFLE to go with it!!  Tim
