Was going through a box of reloading stuff and came across some different items. Not sure what they’d be worth since they’re used and been around a while. If I put them on the classifieds, what would be a fair price to ask.

Whats neat is I found 25 pound of some BB sized lead that my dad used to load before the steel shot laws

My advice on specialty items like that is to sell them on ... eBay. I have been getting really big prices on the stuff I have sold there recently. Most people here will expect 2018 prices or else call you a rap**t.


Pass the gravy.

Might have to throw them on there! Haven’t used eBay in a few years to sell anything. Thanks up

I would find someone to load me up some of those lead bb loads they work good on critters.

That’s what my thought was also. Might try to make some yote loads

Since the late '70s, BBs have been my favorite shot for feral hogs. Absolutely effective. BBs will not collapse a feeder's leg; any buckshot will. Shoot slightly high across a tight group of hogs under a feeder, and you will kill them all. I actually pattern the barrels on my shotgun with cardboard under a feeder to know where I need to be to kill them all. Here is one shot from my New Haven 600 (Gibson's branded Mossberg 500) at 25 yards.

Some old guys on a Hill Country deer lease taught me that back then. I bought a thousand round case of Remington Express 12 Gauge BB ammo, and I bet I killed 3500 hogs with that crate of ammo. Been using BBs since.

BBs have become very popular for self defense; as a user of the ammo and knowing that is what I'm facing, I would be worried. Even more so than buckshot. I'm not sure if you can even get a 25 round box of BBs anymore, everything seems to be packaged for self defense in 5 round boxes.

Buy a Lee Load-All II and put those BBs to use!
