Vintage shells ?
My shooting gang had breakfast today and one of my buds came with the box of shells shown here.
From what I can see they are 12 gauge 1-1/8 ounce loads of chilled 7's in UMC "New Club" hulls and are loaded with 3-1/2 drams of black powder.
One of my vintage references shows that New Club hulls (empties) were normally used for black powder loads, available in 2-3/4" and 3" length and used the UMC #2 primer.
This is not a For Sale advert. Anyone know what this box might be worth to a collector?
