22 ammo collectable?

[Light Infantry]

collectable or just shoot it?
Imperial short and Long

Curious as well, I have a box of Imperial longs and 2 unopened plastic boxes of Imperial shorts.

Probably not worth much, but likely still collectable.

I just shoot these myself, but I get a thrill out of launching oldies, made in better times.

I grew up with those WIZ BANGS 25 cents a box big money when I was a kid . Still have a few boxes hanging around . Keep them a great piece of history.

I tried selling these at many gun shows, didn't get many bites.

No idea if it's collectible as in worth money to someone else, but I've got a box I found in my grandpa's stuff that I'll hang onto as long as I can. Fond memories of shooting with him when I was a kid, and always a box or two in the glovebox of both his and my dad's trucks. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy a box, but it's the last of his stash, so collectible for me I guess.

The idea of collectable ammo is new to me. Got some old stuff my dad had been storing for ages. This packaging is in nice shape...

I just sold 20 boxes of Imperial shorts for 120 bucks yesterday.

I missed out on that one Bill! I've been gathering some older 22 as of late as well, Old imperial and canuck, Plan to accuracy test in my MTR, See how the classic stuff holds up

It's collectable, but you're not going to get rich from it.

WOW!! I think you could get a really good price for that brick - great condition! And they aren't making any more....

C&R Endevers in Red Deer just sold lots at auction. Check there ices.

Switzer Auctions is selling ammo tomorrow.
Google 22 to see what it goes for.

Nothing like looking at an old box of ammo - especially with a price tag on it! (or anything gun related for that matter)
