70's vintage 357 ammo?

[Mrosane]

Got this box of 357 in a trade today. What do you guys think? 1970's? Thought they would be cool to display with my 70's K frames.

I burned a whole lot of that back in the day! Still might have a box or two around. Maybe even one that has ammo in it.
I got dizzy and felt nauseated after looking at your upside down picture, though . . .

Yes, late '60s-'70s, maybe early '80s.

 

[Mrosane]

Sorry about that. Can't seem to fix it though

 

[Mrosane]

Thanks. Was going to shoot them but I think I'll keep them then. Thanks again

 

[Snapping Twig]

I'd disassemble one, check and record powder weight and appearance, then reassemble it or reassemble it and fire to see how it shoots compared to modern ammo.

 

[sac-gunslinger]

Why not just shoot them? With today's continuing ammo shortage that box of 357 is like money in the bank.

 

[Mrosane]

I think I'll just hold onto them as an accessory. I reload anyway and have plenty of ammo

PM me the lot number inside an end flap, and I can probably give you an exact manufacture date.
