Scored on 22 LR!

I went to the shooting range today to check the zero on my muzzle loader. There were two men there when I arrived. One was shooting a .22. When they left, I found an unfired .22 LR round! This is the first .22 ammo I obtained in the past 3-4 years. [:)][:)][:)]

    Oh!! well, I was at the range yesterday and will picking up my stuff I found a dropped/left 38 Spl round. It's some kind of 158 gr SWC in a PMC Case. I'd be happy to give it to anyone willing to arrange transportation.

    Is it old enough to drive? [;)]

    A few years ago, a single 45acp was on auction
    for $1M and got a bid, can't remember who did that.....

    That is a good idea! I think I'll auction off this single round of .22 LR. If a 45 acp round could get a $1M bid, how much more can I expect for this .22 LR. After all, it seems to be the only one still in existence. [:)]

    Good Luck, I don't think CaptFun was amused.

    The price is right as long as you are a single shot man.

    Put it back in the ground! Someone planted it for seed.

    I hope it gets better! My buddies and I stopped by at our local Scheel's after lunch and we got lucky and picked up 1 box limit for $39.99. Not ideal price but it was gone before it was shelved. [:p]

    So wasteful with .22 ammo -- it can only mean those two men were some of the government agents responsible for hoarding all of it! You should have tackled the one shooting the .22, started pummeling him and demand he reveal where it's all hidden!

    I think I'll put the 22 LR round in a locked glass case and save it to show to my great grand children, so they can see what it was like when we had freedom. [:)]
