Do you save the shells favorite from a good shot?

[sandman1212]

Maybe it was the shell from your first deer, or your first bulls eye or some other great shot. Do you have a collection of shells? lets hear about it.

Nope. Only reason I save brass is to give it to a friend that reloads.

My second deer, I made a mount with the rack out of some scrap oak and suede, then a month or so later I was eating a great burger I made and bit into a bullet fragment which I promptly cleaned off dabbed with super glue and stuck it to the oak under the one sided forked horn. And I do have the shell somewhere.

I try to save every shell I reload. As to special shell casing being kept any lenght of time not that I remember.

 

[Flopsweat]

No, just for reloading, but I do have the target from my first 5 round group under 1" at 100 yards. I think... Aw, it's around here somewhere.

Yes, casing from Son's first big game kill, a buffalo even. Was not able to recover bullet as it went through. Father-in-law has case and recovered bullet next to the mounted elk horns.

 

[osprey]

No casings but I have 5 or six bullets I have recovered from deer elk and moose.

My last good shot disappeared with the Tannerite it impacted. :woot:

i dont save brass but i build my own fishing spinners so whenever i catch a nice salmon or steelhead on one i save it.
sometimes the same spinner pattern just spins better than others so i like to refere to the one that kept getting hits.
