i too love the smell of burnt gun powder.. often when shooting targets pop cans i pull one of those paper hulls from the barrel and take a long whiff ...for a few moments i too am lost in time...the best memories i have are of the 10 ga 3 1/2 inch winchester record hulls...my dad had bought hisself one of those richlands arms 10 ga double barrels...this was the beginning of love at first sight and sound and smell of those wonderful and almost magical shells... ill never forget the writing on the side of these shells.. do not fire in guns weighing under 11 1/2 pounds and with 3 1/2 inch chambers... the love for these old paper shells has not waned over the years.... charlie
