The king of the vultures would be no less bent upon preying upon the flock than any of the minor harpies, it was indispensable to be in a perpetual attitude of defence against his beak and claws

I have to ask.... How many different cartridges do think you own ?.....Lol... and keeping track of everything must be a challenge ! |

Just in cutaways, its around 800 different cartridges. As far as an entire collection, that's another story. Also collect unopened boxes, experimentals, color tips, old obsolete ammo, shot gun shells, draw sets, etc..... I like to specialize in armor piercing, tracers, and incendiaries. So many bullets, very limited time. My stuff is in a disarray, with most of it in three different rooms. The sections for clients is bagged, labeled, then relabeled when its being pulled apart. Only work on one client at a time so not to mix up. Keeping it all separated in one spot is the key, that's why all the plastic baggies in the desk picture. |

I have trouble keeping the cleaned reloadable brass headstamps in their own bin ! Lol |

I'd like to find one...even a dummy would be acceptable. Thanks. The Panzerbuchse isn't a hard cartridge to find, but you'd have to get one from a dedicated cartridge collector/dealer. Most other people aren't likely to have it (i.e. your local gun show.) Any of the cartridge shows seem to have at least one person with a sample in inventory. See the IAA website for show locations and dates. (www.cartridgecollectors.org) |

For a low end, just the case $30, fake put together $70, for real deal $100+. Why stop there for antitank ammo, how about: 7.92x87 Spanish ATR 7.92x107 Polish Maroszek 7.92x145 Czech ZVV American experimental T5 50/30 (That's a .50 necked down to a .30 M2AP) The original antitank rifle was the 13.2x92 SR 1918 German Mauser It never stops |
