I was at the Orangeville gun show on Sunday, and I bought a box of early 50s and pre-1947 Dominion 32 S&W Long... just 'cause. Box was in very nice shape, and the 50's vintage rounds look like new. The remaining 20 rounds (likely thrown in decades ago) were mixed D.C. Co. headstamp (pre-1947) 32 S&W Long with pretty aged looking lead... I'm gonna shoot the whole box next Sunday. :)

I bought 1000 rounds of 9mm Blazer Brass 124 gr and UMC 115 gr for my Kriss Vector Carbine.

I also bought 5 boxes of Federal Fusion 150 grain 30-06... 'cause my Tikka T3 Battue shoots iddy biddy wee little groups with 'em. ;)

To think I could have bought three more SKS's for what I paid! lol
 
Bought 4 Crates of .223 from CanAm on Boxing day last year, 2 crates of X39 and 1 Crate of .308 surplus this summer and still havent had time to go to the range :-(

What's a box of 32 S&W worth? Think I have some somewhere.

Latest for me was a couple boxes of .222 Winchester PSP and a couple boxes of .17 hornet from Prophet River no tax sale.
 
I picked up a box of 9 rounds(was originally 10, obviously) of Kynoch brand .303 British for $5 at Orangeville. There WERE some good deals to be had yesterday.
 
Ha! Am I expected to contribute to this thread weekly?

Ordered some Fiocchi 9mm 147gr Hp and .45auto 200gr xtphp from western metal.

I'm definitely an avid collector and ammo has taken over. Love all the different kinds and types and trying them out at the range.

How come you decided to go with 7.5's? I'd imagine the bush is as thick in your neck of the woods as it is in mine in N.E.O. Lots of times we shoot #4's here when using a 28. But most of our shots are on the ground through brush that you can only see a fraction of the birds body through. Are you mostly wingshooting?

As for my most recent ammo purchase, 2 boxes of 180 grain winchester power points in 308 earlier this afternoon. I will be putting them through my new 308 PAR within the next few days to help break it in.
