So, I bought every box they had (24) at the Potomac Arms end of season ammunition sale. Haven't had much use for 1 5/8 ounces of lead #4s over the last 31 years, so I will likely die still owning 23 boxes!!

I'm pretty sure I visited the same shop of which you speak several times in the last fifteen or so years . The first few times with the original owner and then later with the present owners . Sad to say at the time I wasn't looking for doubles but rather Pre 64 Model 70's .
