I haven't seen 405 WCF on anybody's list, another cartridge that I still shoot.

I'm assuming you reload these?

How does one ship "live" ammo these days ? Meaning one each of different examples. Too many laws that might be broken if not done the right way.

UPS or FedEx. It's illegal to ship USPS. The carriers' websites will tell how exactly it needs to be packaged.

Yes, I've never seen factory ammo.

Lead eye,
Any way to trade you out of one of your .460 Weatherby and .405 WCF rounds?
Scout

I have one Pedersen that I would turn loose [but the full box of 40 will keep for awhile], and one of the Krag. Not a collector, just have picked this stuff up over the years because it just was "neat". Have no idea of the worth, so will Google around and see what pops up.

Prices are all over the landscape and UPS shipping is going to be a pain. I'll have to wait until I get the "double" packing thing done and get up to a shipping center. PM your address and I'll let you decide what it's worth.

That seems fair. I sent you a PM tenring.

50 BMG Ammo Supply - 50 cal Ammunition for the rifle and machinegun"

Wow, 50 bucks a shot. That is some expensive stuff! Must make an awesome explosion when it hits something solid. Some of the ball and AP are 4.50 a round. That seems reasonable.

I found a different website with API and APIT for about $35 for 10 rounds

Found some more ammo today and was wanting to post pics. Is anybody else having trouble loading pics with Photobucket?

I use postimage.org. You don't need an account to upload images there. Looking forward to seeing what you have found.......

Can anyone guess what these are?

 

[Fullmag]

The stripper clip looks like my old 6.5 Swedish mauser.

 

[Wolfhound]

Your actually really close.

Hint: It was made in Europe for a country that isn't very friendly to the USA right now.

 

[TheBoss930]

Is it 6x50 from New Zealand?

Is it 6x50 from New Zealand?

No, but it is a metric size. I think I have traded one to Bogwalker and Scout so far.

 

[Wolfhound]

It is 7x49 Liviano FAL ammunition. Produced in Europe by FN for Venezuela.
