Default Red 20 Ga. Hulls

Do these have any collector value? Any guess how much? Thanx, Billy

Sorry, but no. They also look like they've reached the end of their reloading life.

They're old. Not yellow

Old, not yellow, and 20-gauge.

Maybe rare, but not a collectible.

Sounds like most of my collections.

I’ve picked up a half dozen or so of them over the years . I loaded them all and they’re sitting on the window sill in what was my loading room and now is pretty much a storeroom .

About 6 years ago, Federal put on a promotion to encourage women shooters. Made up a bunch of pink shells in 12 and 20 gauge. They had to recall the 20 gauge shells because they didn't follow the yellow shell convention

A Navy Chief I shot with in San Diego had a case of them and gave me two boxes. In December 1973 I safely stored them away at my parents' house in Seattle on my way to Alaska. Next time I saw them they were fifty empties on the loading bench. Dear old Dad had shot doves with them!! I have one Western factory load and one Winchester reloaded in my shell collection. I'd imagine a crisp, full, factory fresh box would have some collector value.

A full box of red paper 20's that pre-date Billy's shells and Dave's vignette. Would look good in a shell collection or with a Model 12 or 21 Skeet gun.
