Hahahaha, my undying respect

 

[BANE]

This is a great idea!..
I'm building a nice collection of bullets like this also. i need to build a place to show them off.
Looking good..

Thanks! I do need to build a bigger display case for them; when I first started I didn't think it would grow as quickly as it did.

 

[Toxic6]

Is the first one a .22 cb or is it a .22 blank?

 

[williamcjones1988]

Welling going to say that blue and white one on the top shelf is a 40mm grenade

 

[LuftPost]

Correct, 1-1 is a .22 CB

 

[LuftPost]

Yes sir, 1-30 is a CTG 40mm Practice Chalk Round (M791)

 

[accessbob]

Nope, you are not completely correct. It is a bunch of CARTRIDGES (which is the full part of case, powder, primer, and bullet). The bullet is only part of the equation.

 

[OFADAN]

Hum...the lower row, third from the right. The one with a Paper Patch Lead Bullet. I'd say it must be a .45 2 7/8th (or miscommonly called the .45-110. Some call it the .45-120).

I'd guess it has a 520 grain Patch Patch bullet (Paper Patch was the precursor to the modern jacketed bullet).

 

[OFADAN]

Indeed, three rows of Cartridges. Anyway, hum...the lowest row, third from the right. The straight case with a Paper Patch Lead Bullet. I'd say it must be a .45 2 7/8" (or miscommonly labeled the .45-110. Some call it the .45-120). Anyway, I'd say from the photo it is a .45 caliber and the case sans the bullet is 2 7/8".

I'd guess it has a 520 grain Patch Patch bullet (Paper Patch was the precursor to the modern jacketed bullet).

This one (3-36) is a 40-90 Sharps Straight, and is indeed paper patched. Headstamp is- W.R.A. Co. 40-90 S.S. Case length is 3 1/4" (82mm)

 

[LuftPost]

OFADAN- If you know your paper patched cartridges, maybe you can help me with these (I haven't ID'd them yet)-
2-1 No headstamp, necked, 43.3mm overall case length, neck begins at 25mm, bullet is 10mm in width
3-24 No headstamp, necked, 57.8mm overall case length, neck begins at 39mm, bullet is 10mm in width

 

[jimwsea]

That big blue one on the top shelf looks like my roll-on deodorant.

 

[Toxic6]

i spy an "evil" black talon in 9x19 .

Is .32 short and .38 short appropriate terms.....or do you need the brand monikers on them. yes i know how to use google but what fun is that.

Yes sir, there's actually 2 of those evil rounds in there. no need for brand names, just the simple terms, like you said- .38 short, etc I'm off to a Easter dinner, will see what's up when I get back!

EDIT- Nailed 1-14 btw..

 

[WIRED tactical]

How do I get one of these 40mm chalk rounds? I definitely need that for my collection.

I need quite a few on mine still. 6.8spc and all the special ones.

 

[rangerstx4]

Ill call the mostly obvious:
Bottom right, 20mm m61 vulcan blue tip, then a 50bmg armor piercing incendiary round.
Middle row, 4th from the right 17 hmr, 6th from right is 7.62x25, 14th from the right is the 5.7x28, 20th from right is the 300 blackout, 21st from right 7.62x39, 23rd from right i think is 5.45x39.
