Had a guy drop off a pouch of old .38's the other day. Mostly old R-P LRN. One of the old Norma FMJ conicals and then, in the bottom, these:

Anyone else remember these or am I dating myself?

Yeah, I remember that ammo from the early '70s. Never shot any of it -- couldn't afford it back then.

Oh my goodness - SuperVel. Haven't seen that in years...............

I received about 15 of these a couple of months ago from a friend of mine who is an acutioneer. He sells estates, but does not sell ammunition, so I am the beneficiary.

I shot them in my Model 28 and do they "ROAR"! Not bad for accuracy either.
