I finally found some 375 brass and it is pretty vintage. Ha ha. Its all new in the box and unprimed never fired but I was curious if anybody knew right off hand about when this stuff was made, and no despite the price tag I definitely did not pay $7 per box for it. Is this late 70's mid 80's?

My guess is between’58-‘62, based on some ammo boxes of the same styling from that time frame.
 
Great find!
 
Amazing find!!! Now the challenge of weather you load them or keep them pristine as a cool collection!
 
I know. Luckily I have 100pcs of Privi Partisan I haven't cracked open yet and 100 that i am working on about the 3rd loading so it will be a while before I get to it if I don't find some other brass before then.
 
Hate to waste brass but all 20 cases pulled out and arranged with the flattened box in a frame would be one heck of an addition to the man cave!
 
Well I got 200 of them so I might spare a box of it for decoration, and then I'll always have an emergency 20 pcs of brass. Be nice if I could find some old vintage Winchester projectiles and load them up and make a display like that.

Preparing for the adventure of a lifetime. Looking forward to my 2026 Africa hunt with Van Wijk Safaris in South Africa.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
