DONE 25/20 ammo

[Gonzobird]

So a customer is asking if i can find him some 25/20 ammo.

Seems rare. No distros have it in stock, even gunbroker has boxes for that would be more for ammo collectors. Figured I would ask here to see if anyone has some they want to part with.

$75 / box yikes. Should sell him some reloading dies while you're at it.

Looks like you can get everything to load it yourself, dies, brass, bullets, etc. Powder and primers might be a search.

Honestly, I'd call Quattro's in Pleasant Valley or Collector's in Hopewell. I'd be willing to bet Collectors has some in stock.

Well, it is a box of 50.

Ah, thought it was 20. Still being somewhat "rare" and hard to source, probably a good idea to think about reloading if customer wants to continue shooting it.

I suggested the reloading but he doesn't want to get into it. He basically wants to have a box of ammo so he can shoot his grandfather's gun once or twice a year. I told his son-in-law who reloads to buy the dies and i got "I might" so that means he doesn't care.
