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.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
