.22LR Cartridge Box database

[User00040]

Seeing that .22LR is the only ammo I still buy (and looking at the massive shortages in the USA) my research has led me to this database (not my work, obviously!):

.22 Box Identification Guide for Collectors

Looks very plain, but once you click through to a pdf the effort gone through of compiling it is evident!

The amount of work in researching that was incredible.

Thank God for crazy and obsessive people. They make the world a good place.

@caberslash, take a look at the Cartridge Collectors stuff. There is a whole world of obsessively catalogued centrefire boxes and brochures, plus a forum to talk about it! I wanted to prove a point about 1950s ammunition a while back so I posted a question and got extremely specific answers back with supporting documentation. Love it...

Incidentally, I recently came across a whole website devoted to the cataloguing and celebration of SOX (low-pressure-sodium) lamps. The owner is also a founding member of 'UKASTLE': the UK Association of Street Lighting Enthusiasts, who have an even more impressive set-up. Mental people rule!
