USAC plastic squeezie bullets.

Months ago a coworker came to me with a tackle box full of ammo he was looking to sell. It belonged to his farther in law and he was trying to sell it. Having been in that situation twice in the last few years (still in it) I knew it wasn't any fun, so I did the good guy thing and offered him too much for it.

I only looked through it briefly and put it in the corner. Mostly handloads I will end up pulling and some rimfire ammo.
After many months in the corner I finally looked through it well tonight. I opened one box and said "What the hell kind of bullets?" Then the logo on the box rang a bell and I remembered them (though I'd never seen any wad cutters. In truth I'd never seen any in person, just in ads.

Wonder if they're worth anything to an ammo collector? (rather than me just melting them down)

they hit like a ton of bricks....wicked on jacks, fox, coyote etc.

Upside down these would be like a Boser bullet.

I wonder how/if they'd shoot? Worst possible outcome would be if they shot great. :-D

Cas, send me your address . and I`ll send a box of (50) emtpy one time fired cases. I have 4 box`s of 158 grain bullets (loaded) that I will shoot sometime. I shot one box . all you have to do is prime and put whatever power you want and push the bullets in , I think a small vice would work. best regards Frank McClelland . fivegunner -at -sbcglobal.net:-D
