I think it's been awhile since Alcan made anything.
Dad used to get up an order for everybody in the family before hunting season and drive to Alton picking up from the factory to get a better price. I've still got a few boxes that folks in the family had laying around. There's a box of Alcan factory loaded magnum 10 gauge on Gunbroker, he's had them listed several times. At $100 I think I'll pass but they sure are nice. Destry

I picked up some of those babies, I think they came with a gun I bought a while back. I would rather use the plastic wads but the .135 can be used as over shot wads I guess. I wonder who Alcan sold them to?
