Good afternoon.
About two years back, I bought two boxes of steel cased .357 magnum ammo by mistake. I shot half a box and it was fine, but it takes noticeably more effort to eject the empties from my 1980-vintage Dan Wesson than brass cases, and it takes some of the fun out of it wondering if the next cylinder full will have one that needs to be tapped out. As a result, the balance have just been sitting in the storage cabinet taking up room.
It's Massachusetts, so I can't sell them. None of my friends shoot .357 so I can't give them away to someone I know. I'm far enough from NH that if I tried to do a classified sale to someone there, I'd likely spend more in gas driving there than I'd get for it.
Seems a shame to dump them in the dud bucket. I suppose I could put them away in case of "emergency", but, realistically there's a whole lot of rounds in storage that would be in front of them.
Anyone have any thoughts?
